UKC

40m. identifying it - there is (nov 2020) a small square cleared area in the weeds.
There is a wide, six-inch deep ledge at 1m, the climb starts up pockets, veers right into a faint niche then pulls up and left over the bulge. large orange hole at mid-height.
(Will be graded 7a in the nov-2020 book 'Costa Blanca Climbs' but it is much harder than the next 7a to the right)

βeta: Shockingly badly bolted. An argument against rap-bolting. The first part has bolts everywhere then a long runout with a hard to clip bolt in the middle of the only hard section remaining?

βeta: the first 10m are probably the hardest bit; there are 2 scary runouts in the middle, the first is blind at the end of it (nearing the hole), you can continue left up the pockets and clip on your right (holding a left-hand gaston) or span blindly right into the base of the orange hole. spooky either way. The grade eases after you pass the chains of the right-hand line at ~30m and then becomes a very-hard-to-read 6b.
