Rockfax Description
A gem. Climb through the low overhangs with difficulty, then continue up the sustained wall above to a wide corner. Follow this to a steep finish past a pocket. © Rockfax

βeta: Clip the 2nd bolt when you have your hands on the juggy break above it - it is not exactly run out (bolt by your knees, no chance of deck out), and it is safer and less tiring than trying to clip from below on the undercut.

βeta: With the second bolt stick-clipped, it's a really fun, varied route.
