80m, 3 pitches. Two Excellent pitches between Enigma Grooves and Sweeney Todd. Pitch 2 had previously been climbed by A. Tibbs and I. Blackwood in 2005.

1. 25m 4b As for November Groove to belay below a left-facing corner-crack in the right wall of Enigma Grooves.
2. 35m 5b Climb the fine corner-crack, then continue more easily up then leftwards into the easy section of Enigma Grooves. Go up this to below the big square-cut groove directly above.

βeta: Found ourselves in the middle of a thunderstorm as Finlay started pitch 3. Partly due to soaked rock and incompetence I slipped in the crux, pulled back on and it went. Surprised this isn\'t in any guide books. Pitch 3 is incredible.
