13m.
The classic Balmashanner line and a perfect introduction to the crag. Steep, pumpy and powerful. Hard for the grade and rarely flashed.
Climb from the large block by edges and pockets to a protruding block at two thirds height. A long move leads to positive edges, move left to the groove and dig deep for the final move. Deserves the stars, and deserves more ascents.
