4 pitches. Just left of the smaller buttress left of the main crag, starting down and right of an obvious umbrella of ice (NN594,799) . Follow the shallow gully on good ice turning right past a small ice cave, then back left and up. Good grade 3 with small steps of 4. Climbed during beast from the east so may not come in to condition very often.

* This newly updated climb is waiting to be checked by the crag moderator.

βeta: My mate Fran and I did a route that answers to this description. We climbed it in December 2010 (another "beast"! of a winter) and when I asked Andy Nisbet, he said it had already been done and it's called "Map and Compass" (rather poxy name, but good route!).
