16m. The original classic of the crag.
A relatively easy start leads up and rightwards to gain the huge “Vibes” pocket and a good shake out.
Step up and move left into the intimidating roofed corner. Gaining and leaving the big roof pocket constitutes the crux for most people. Pull out left round the lip to gain better holds and a short but intense section (left of the arete bolts) before moving right to the chains on the right side of the short roof above.

I. Cropley 1991.
