Rockfax Description
An unusual escapade that initially utilises the tree (trunk thread) before stepping onto the rock proper and climbing up a corner to the top and a lower-off on the right. Without using the tree the grade is 6b+. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Start on the tree, placing a good thread through a hole in the branch. Stand on the branch you just threaded and step across onto the rock and the first bolt out left. Follow the dirty corner until you step right to the rings near the top.
Great fun.

βeta: When Climbing this the thread no longer exists as it has grown through the hole, however you can still girth hitch onto a neighbouring branch. | βeta? | |
