[Luke90, 3 kb]10m. A far more amenable and protectable method of ascending the wall and roof, but still no push-over. Start at the thin crack beneath the roof. 10m. Climb the thin crack to the break under the roof and power up and out across the right-leaning flakes to a couple of rounded finishing overlaps. © ROCKFAX
Classic! The centre of the wall, starting in the thin crack to the overhang. Make use of the rounded flake to sumount this and continue up and slightly right to finish 'manfully'. Friends protect.
