Rockfax Description
Low in the grade but bolder than others of similar difficulty and fewer bolts (only two), but with some additional trad protection possibilities. Start at a block and head for the first bolt. Above connect some pockets and then from the second bolt make some harder moves and finish at the shared lower-off. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Bold climbing on small friable holds. The crux is well protected by the second bolt.
