[Conclusor at Ravensdale, 4 kb]44m. A fine route with good climbing and a reachy couple of moves just before easy ground is gained. The best route on the crag - possibly. Make sure to take a decent sized rack especially if you intend to do it as a single pitch. Start under the soaring groove. 1) 4c 12m. Follow the small groove to a stance on the ledge. 2) 5a, 30m. Climb the well-defined groove-line running up the left side of the main face. © ROCKFAX

Straightforward line, but not straightforward moves! I did not want to finger-jam at the crux as two fingers were bleeding from the previous route, so had to think. Good and technical route with sustained interests.
