Guidebook description for p1 should read: climb half way up pinnacle, then traverse left to the corner and climb this. The overhanging "groove" with the thin crack is "Extraction" E3!
Pete_Frost - AltLd - 20/Apr/13 with Kin Choi
I hate old guidebooks. Confused me with Extraction next door. Did this route a couple of years ago in a hurry. Just didn't remember much. Finally found the right way. Good little moves on 1st pitch crux bit and quite airy at the start of 2nd. But I don't really like winding route that much.
Skinny Kin - AltLd rpt - 20/Apr/13 with Pete Frost
make sure you have lots of number 1 and 2 nuts or be ready for the run out of your life. The move off the arete takes some pretty big nuts as well if you know I mean.

Where to start. Great pitches and exposure. Moving off for pitch 2 on lead is scary, had a 1/2 nut for protection to save a large fall. After many attempts had to pull round corner with aid of placed micronut, so pumped. Huge rope drag on slab after, and then the downpour began. Memorable !

Rope drag FAFF. 'Optional' 2nd belay point in guidebook definitely not optional. Without it, there was so much rope drag that I had to be dropped a top rope on the slab due to a complete inability to move upwards and no gear.
Nice route, would like to do again.

First move onto fallen pinnacle is pretty tough. Big stretch to move left under overhang to the corner. Straight up looked much harder then HVS. Got up to first belay, but then heavens opened. Sheltered at first, but then steady drips from above soaked us in no time. Abseiled off leaving two nuts behind. Will be back to finish it.

The opening moves of P2 are hard and serious (so the strategy of this multi-pitch has to be right!). Excellent route.
masa-alpin - Lead O/S - 31/Oct/08 with P Luke
Led second pitch, and think I stayed too far left - ended up being 20m of 5a climbing on micro-wires and poor no. 1+2 nuts - only spotted the true line (I presume) when at the top, on easier ground!
