Rockfax Description
An amazing effort for its day. Climb the lower slab right of centre to a break and runners. Step right and balance up the slab, using an undercut ear to make a tricky mantel/high step well above the gear. Continue to the next break and escape right. © Rockfax

βeta: It's not as bold as you think!!! There are good tricams in the pocket on the traverse and the one above to protect the scoop! | βeta? | |

βeta: Nice route, maybe a bit contrived at the top. I thought the crux in the top scoop was 5b, and found the awkward moves round the bulge at half-height harder and just as bold. Having a long reach probably helps for the top move though. | βeta? | |

βeta: Well, in reply to Mike Raine: That move at the top (the no hands rockover) is definately 5B/C and at that point the only gear (one cam) is way below you, so i would call that E2/3 (Harder than "three steps to heaven"!!!!!) | βeta? | |

βeta: The combination of the two routes in the database is a shame, making the comments confusing. Great Route though(the E2 that is). | βeta? | |

βeta: Backed off this (was leading f7a+ day before) so can't imagine it's E1. Will return when feeling suitably pysched. | βeta? | |
