Easy E2, requires trust. Also the unnamed problem/route (similar length to OS) on chipped holds, to the right of Baby Spice (V0).

no mats or spotters for full tick. it felt fine. prob not worth e2 as only about 2 moves to it. best tick of the day though if i exclude 3 mantels.

Easy (5b) slab moves above a not so great landing add 'spice' to this mini route. Despite the landing would still question the E2 tag.....With mats a V1 boulder problem. Interestingly baby spice (right side of arete) gets E5!!!!!
