200m, 5 pitches. A tremendous excursion between La Linea D'Ombra and Gamma, but starting to the left of the first joint pitch of those routes. Climb the obvious crack left of Eros (starting up Eros) to the large ledge. Move right and gain the right side of the wall above (between La Linea..and Gamma) by an exposed move up rightwards into a groove. Continue up to a steepening and awkward crack, and gain a ledge above beneath a roof capped corner. Climb the corner, move left around the roof and up to a small corner and bulge above and left. Pull up into the corner, step left and surmount the shattered bulge, to a niche on the right. Continue up the chminey corner above, past a tree (close to Gamma), and continue up the crack and slab above to large ledges. Go up the rib on the right and continue up easier ground via chimneys and corners to the top.
