350m, 12 pitches.
By far the easier of the two routes. Well bolted. Take 12 quickdraws and 2x50m. 5+ oblig. The stonefall warning applies to both routes in the recess. Wear a helmet.

βeta: second the advice from Gav P. A few missing bolt hangers on first 2 pitches. And the abseils take longer than expected, being careful not to dislodge rocks on your partner. | βeta? | |

βeta: 2 or 3 bolt hangers missing on the first pitch, and one from the second pitch, although all on fairly easy terrain. All other hangers in place, as of Oct 19. I wouldn't recommend climbing this route with anyone else on the cliff, especially following you up. Ropes are highly likely to dislodge rocks down the steep gully on rappel - wouldn't be good to be down below. | βeta? | |
