22m.

Rockfax Description
A good route with a wild finish. Start just right of An Ivory Smile beneath a groove in the bulge above. Another grubby start reaches good holds below and left of the groove line. A hard press move gains the groove which is followed with difficulty to better holds. Climb the ever steepening smooth wall to a crazy campus-board finish to reach the lip of the gorge. A heel hook can make clipping the lower-off easier. Low in the grade. © Rockfax
