35m.
Formally known as Hitman from a 1977 ascent, but now recognised that this line was climbed before 1970 by SUMC members. The start is obvious, from below the easily identifiable wedged block to the right of Assassin. Climb up left of the block, then move onto it via a hard move on small but positive foot holds. The crack slightly left is then followed steeply but with good holds and protection. Once you join the diagonal crack of Dry Riser it is very easy to go off route. The line actually crosses the steep wall immediately up and to your right. This looks hard but if you commit you will find really positive holds which quickly move you into another crack and the finish.

βeta: Noticed significant hollow feeling and vibration in Jammed block. I appreciate this may just be it's nature and is intact solid but I'm not familiar with the route so don't know the history of the block. It was very detached when looking from the side/above, there was a large cavity behind it. We had nothing with us to try and trundle it safely, but if anyone with local knowledge of the route has time and willing, it might be a good idea to see if it has shifted significantly and is loose before someone does unintentionally. | βeta? | |
