25m. A tragicomedy of a route which required a fair bit of loose rock removal to create; the outcome being an adventurous line with good moves and adequate gear, but still requiring a little care. The steep, initial moves are often wet. Starting in the dusty niche, bridge up past tactile flowstone and do battle with two consecutive leftward bulges. From a resting ledge, (in-situ thread up right), thin moves leftwards gain big holds and the base of a leftwards-leaning fissure (threads). A few thoughtful moves majoring on the left wall gain the top of the wall. Tree belays above, with rising leftwards exit to another tree.
