28m.

Rockfax Description
A first class climb that features some great climbing on very good rock. Start just to the right of a crack. Climb up to a steep groove and continue with difficulty to a less steep, but still high-quality finish. © Rockfax

βeta: Beautiful route. 28m of adrenaline fuelled climbing. Difficult crux with limited features.... use a 60m rope!

βeta: Great climbing, superb line and rough unpolished rock. A cracking 3* pitch. Low in the grade.

βeta: for 6B+ crux is relatively technical; not that easy to unlock correct sequence / find best holds. a superb, balanced route though: strong first half / delicate second half including quite a scary step to make the belay

βeta: Thought it was solid 6c, with an awkward crux, not a good first 6c IMHO, there are plenty easier ones around at Portland.
