Rockfax Description
The compact white wall, marked by two threads, has a bold and committing start with an immediate sense of exposure. The climbing is superb, technical and pumpy. © Rockfax

βeta: 10 Sep 22 - Broke an early foothold this time, the two low micro wires ripped and I broke my coccyx. (Make sure you have a belay in the corner!) Replaced the top thread with some cord. Lower thread proved too difficult to fiddle in so left it. To be continued.

βeta: Took the old rotten threads out of this today. Attempted to lead it without them but fell off the last move and ripped a wire out. Will probably replace them before the next lead!
