25m. A beautiful route that gains and climbs the ragged twin cracks in the edge of the buttress, with a wild span or small jump to cross the initial scoop.

D. Cuthbertson Jun/1984.

βeta: For what it's worth, I think a runner just above where you move out left is fair - this is adequate to keep you off the ground. If you place it so high that you're basically on a top rope, then that does seem 'a bit cheaty'.
