32m. Eliminate in its lower half, but a good, long route nonetheless. Start as for Strictly Ballroom. Step up right and climb the slab above the small tree, passing a metre right of the blast pocket, to the left edge of a niche. Move up and follow right-rising diagonal cracks to a good square-cut hold. Stand up in this and climb straight up to pass just right of a sapling. Continue direct to pass just left of the foot of a grassy rake; then trend rightwards to reach and follow a thin flake (crux). Finish straight up to a lower-off, or, if this is not in situ, scramble up grassy slopes to saplings.

First ascent. Nice rockover move in the first few metres, and an interesting crux high on the route. Hope the flake survives.
