4b. Climb directly up the centre of the slab, to the uppermost overhang. Mantle
over this to reach a tree belay. (Touching the tree branch with hand, foot or back reduces the grade. The climb will be improved when the branch eventually dissappears)(From "A rock climbers guide" by Tim Dennell)
Update - The branch is now only a tree stump and has turned into "bone oak". Best leaving the stump where it is and keeping to the rocks! Sept 09
