12m.
An enjoyable route in one of the less visited areas of the crag. Often this area is only accessible by abseil - unless you don't mind wet feet!
Climb up past the stone guardian on your right and place the one and only good nut runner. Climb up past the left side of small tree and then a series of narrow ledges. Climb up and over the small and unstable looking boulder and scramble up the steep forest floor to safety.
Only deserves the grade due to the lack of protection, otherwise it would be VD.

βeta: It's a fab route but the gear is absolutely abysmal, place it purely for psychological reasons | βeta? | |
