15m. Start at the finish of Short Stories (left of arete). Climb passed two bolts (crux is in between). Step right for a good foothold on arete. Continue up to the ledge. Either finish direct up to the left (precarious) or follow the arete (easier). Bolt belay on a block at the top. A bolt has replaced where there was an insitu peg.

E3 6a.. Worthwhile.

Good but short-lived. Can't really see where the E4 comes from (the move to the first bolt?)

one cool section of climbing between the 1st and 2nd bolt with a balancy 5c move, but generally not a good route as there is not a good line. went up to the left at top. E3 5c

One thin move

ground-up 2nd go. was really cold after belaying mason on never-neverland....got to crux on 1st go then got all confused with my feet and as i moved my foot up to the good foothold my hands popped. lowered to the ground, warmed up and then had it. wicked moves to, and up the arete. A good route IMHO

The only person from our group to get up this one without 'aiding' or falling off/hanging on the rope
hetaher - TR - 20/Aug/07 with Lee

Stepped on 1 bolt, cos the foothold was crap. Actually the bolt looked a bit dodgy so I thought I'd check it would at least take body weight :P
C@rwyn - TR - 20/Aug/07 with Jake

Pleased with my second clean onsight E3 lead. Topping out is definately easier for the tall man.

didn't find the peg mentioned in the guide book. So, the whole route was done with just the two bolts... scary.
