500m.

Rockfax Description
500m. From the lowest point of the ridge, climb easily to the right end of a grass terrace (65m). Continue by slabs and walls, a little left of the crest, to steeper rocks that are turned on their right flank. Climb cracks and grooves to the easier angled crest of the ridge and follow this with occasional difficulties to the plateau.

βeta: Was a little gressy on route. Scramble is stiff, definitely, worth using rope.
