50m.
Starts at the right end of a small overhang at the left base of the crag. Climb up the obvious right trending flakes, with good gear. The first section is excellent with sound clean rock. However as the angle tilts back the slab becomes mossy and dirty! From here you can either trend right up the slab before heading back left near the top OR you can head left up a dirty gully. If you take the left hand option after 35m (from the base of the route) you come to a block with tat on and a tree that can be used as a belay and abseil decent. The top slabs are not really worth it being dirty and with little protection!

βeta: 1st pitch really nice, we didn't fancy the ab tat- rotten tree/loose block combo so did a loose and rather dirty pitch up and left, found a huge block and abbed from that. | ||

βeta: Quite serious on the slab (no good gear with potential death fall). Tat is ok at the lower off. | βeta? | |

βeta: Gave the top slab a clean as I went, finished at the heather ledge, then moved right to the Falcon ab point. | βeta? | |
