Rockfax Description
A good but cruxy line, essentially reaching and climbing the groove right of Break of Dawn. Start some 4m left of the blunt arete. Climb up and diagonally rightwards, to reach the arete where it gives way to the blank wall above, then make hard moves to gain some obvious flat holds above. Follow the excellent groove above to the top. © Rockfax
