54m.
A worthwhile 'top of the grade' 2011 addition from two young (at the time!) local Avon enthusiasts. Follow Dexter for 13 meters until just before its first belay. Climb the thin crack above you with good wires and difficulty to reach a small sapling. Continue above to the good wire in the pocket of 'Mediator'. Join this route briefly up the slab to meet the small roof and gear. Tip toe leftwards with a grin and finish as for Dexter.
*Checked and updated description 31.10.24 in preparation for the new Avon supplement which will include an accurate topo.
