Rockfax Description
The blunt central arete has a thin flake crack. Tricky moves lead to the beckoning holds, above which things rapidly ease off. © Rockfax

βeta: Nice stuff, but soft touch. The protection is a tiny bit sketchy in places but the low tricky move (easy 5b?) is well protected. If it's an HVS it's only just.
