UKC

35m. Start midway between the fallen birch tree and Outspan, just right of a shelf at the base. Make bouldery moves past good incut hold to the second break. Move left along this, then up past a left-curving flake to large quartz recess. Pull out rightwards and direct up wall trending left to beneath the roof. Cross this at a prominent V-slot (jugs on lip), and continue easily up right edge of wall to gain the right end of the belay ledge on The Brute.

βeta: Pitch 2 from the 5 bolt ledge - 6a, 25m - directly up the wall to a roof and good cams in a slot. Reach over to small edge on the lip, then spam left to jugs. Pull over to a good small break then go more easily up the wall above rightwards then trending left to a sling and maillon on a tree. 60m abseil to ground.
