Climbs the shallow gully just right of the summer line of Iota to the skylight visible at the top. A good route with an excellent top pitch. Start a couple of metres right of Iota.

2nd pitch: 35m. Move right into the gully and follow it to a left facing corner. Excellent climbing on frozen blobs of turf lead up the corner to the skylight.
