Rockfax Description
Magnificent! The original and best line here, venturing up the amazing crack/stepped feature on the right edge of the smooth orange wall - and all at an unlikely grade. Climb the steep lower section on good holds to gain a narrow groove, and overcome this to reach the main crackline above. Follow this, entering the shallow corner formed by the smooth wall on the left, and continue to the breakline above. Move 2m right, and climb the leftwards-slanting groove to the top. © Rockfax
