UKC

Rockfax Description
Steady climbing with a bit of a run-out. It remains a good lead although it is often top-roped, hence the polish. Pull through the bulge just left of The Directissima past a small wire to a thread. Continue past a peg, then join The Directissima below the final groove. Follow the groove to finish.
Indirectissima E5 6b, is squeezed in between Face Value and Directissima. It takes a straight line from the first ledge to the last bolt on Directissima. © Rockfax

βeta: Why is "The Big C" not mentioned. This is a quality route based around FV. Solid E4 but only E4. Misses out the steep start to FV and wanders around between gear. Excellent route. Enty
