Rockfax Description
A quality excursion Start as for Rustic Wall. Ascend the thin crack-line to a peg and move up left to a pocket. Head up right past a bolt to gain and follow a strenuous thin diagonal crack to a good hold. Pull up to a short crack and then gain a recess above. Move onto the slab above and traverse left above two bolts to a small niche. Climb the slabby wall boldly, to the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Climb the thin crack in the center of the wall to a peg and make a reeeeach to a mondo jug in the pocket. Clip the bolt and storm up and slightly right to where two cracks meet in a Y shape. Take the crack on the right to where is ends then move up to a little cave. Have a breather, clip two stonking blots and teeter up the lovely slab above.

βeta: The crimp rail on the slab just below the top is basically made of cheese, beware what you pull on!
