Rockfax Description
A fine climb with a worrying finale. Start up the short crack and make hard moves (especially so for the short) to easier ground. Lace the break, then teeter up the final slab by ever more committing moves. Side-runners lower the E-grade. © Rockfax

βeta: The lower section seemed quite dangerous without side-runners in the thin crack to the right. It also felt quite contrived. The top is certainly safer but it is 'in the slightest thin'.

βeta: Definately low in grade, with or without siderunner, top slab is easy and not in the slightest thin, nice route but very much low crux.

βeta: A route of contrats, an awkward start (harder if you're short) followed by a delicate bold slab to finish.
