15m. To the left of the path that leads up Pen Yr Ole Wen, on the largest and steepest buttress opposite Ogwen Cottage.

Climb the steep crack passing a peg at 2/3's height. Crux at the top. An eliminate direct finish is possible at E8 7a if you avoid the obvious holds.

Sean Miles.

βeta: The original route is the E8 7a by Sean Miles, the left hand finish was done by Ioan Doyle as he couldn't work out how to do the top bit of Sean's finish, not sure if Ioan's l/h finish has had a repeat but a few climbers have tried it. I'm pretty sure Sean's original finish hasn't had a repeat !
