Rockfax Description
A great route up the centre of the square buttress to the left (looking in) of the abseil line. Start in the centre of the buttress, below a left-leaning ramp. Climb the ramp to a good flake on the arete - lace this with gear, then make a tricky traverse back right to a hard move past an old peg. Finish strenuously right or left. © Rockfax

βeta: Peg is so grim now I didn't even bother with it. As said before there is good gear that backs up the peg

βeta: The peg is quite old now, but there are perfect wires to back it up.

βeta: Agree with the above comment. The first 2/3rds are pleasant enough but straightforward. The last section is sustained 5c in a superb position.

βeta: Excellent moves across thin wall and up to top. Would get three stars if bottom wall was not so straightforward!
