Rockfax Description
A fine climb up the clean face and left-trending finger-flake. Climb the lower wall on superb rock to an overlap. Reach left to a thin flake-crack which leads strenuously to the top and a good finishing hold. © Rockfax

βeta: Decent route, despite polish. Final flake is a great feature. 6b, not 6c. It's an endurance route; no individual moves higher than UK tech 5b.

βeta: Beware of the tree. I fell from the crux and hit the tree quite hard on the way down.

βeta: Found a good rest just below the finger crack using a jug slightly left, seemed reasonable given it was a key foot also

βeta: It gets 6b in the new definitive guide - and I added an extra bolt low down because of previous comments. This is the real world, we try our best but sometimes the bolts aren't always exactly where we'd like them to be. No one says a sport route shouldn't get your adrenaline flowing a little bit!

βeta: Quite a gap between the 2nd & 3rd bolts - if your limit was 6a+ it would be scary

βeta: A nice climb shaded by big trees behind. Me being 16 a bit of a reach to the therd bold but adds to the fun.
