UKC

45m. Start 4m left of Shivering Timbers at a short pillar below twin grooves with a small overhang above. Climb the pillar moving right into the left of the two grooves. A move up and right gives access to the second steep groove, climb this by its right edge to a small ledge below the overhang. Swing left and follow the wall and slabs above to finish directly at the abseil anchor.

βeta: Attempted this yesterday but failed to climb the groove even though I dug out a splendid Rock 4 placement high in it. (And also had a tiny TCU which, unfortunately, is still there! Sorry for the littering). The description on FRCC website reads " . . climb this by its right edge" which is ambiguous at best. Subsequently saw the photo on UKC showing the FA climbing right of the groove, using its edge so prob should read " . . . cross under the groove and climb up right of it."
