Rockfax Description
Bold climbing up the wall left of the arete gains a pocket then better holds and protection. Climb cracks above to the top avoiding a hollow flake on its left. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The fractured-looking arete just left of Ambling Ant. Start from the obvious block at the bottom right of the steep wall taken by Samurai Jack.
(5c). Climb the arete on its left side, trending leftwards with the large diagonal edges to a deep but not particularly satisfying pocket. Move up to better holds and the first piece of decent gear. From here ascend a pair of cracks with ease (4c), passing to the left of a concerningly hollow-sounding flake (do not use) and up to the finish. Bold at its start but soft for the grade.
