Rockfax Description
Unusual climbing on large sloping holds leads to a heart-stopping finish. Start right of the arete. Move up and right to stand on a good ledge. Head left into a cramped niche and pull out insecurely on slopers. Steep moves gain a ledge and a brief rest. Climb the final wall on pockets and finger edges. © Rockfax

βeta: Not an amenable 7a+ by any stretch of the imagination but not really a 7b either, just awkward blind and gnarly.

βeta: Good route, if you like slopers, slopers and a few more slopers. It is actually really good climbing, just a shock after so much crimping recently on Portland. Save something for the last few moves!!

βeta: Funny climbing - hard to onsight but easy once you know where the holds are...
