One amazing flowstone "cave" / hold near the top which allows you to rock over and finish. Tricky for me but really enjoyable!

leemaybr05 - Lead O/S - 19/Mar/09 with Beckie Bale

Struggled on this for some reason - tried to go too far right I think, at bottom. Easy enough when you're into the feel of the slippy stuff. Unusual to get a knee-bar in at 4+!
