Rockfax Description
A particularly good wall climb that, if caught in prime condition, warrants an extra star. Thin moves to a jug at the break are immediately followed by a stretchy move to get established on a stuck-on block. Some great flowstone finishes the pitch. © Rockfax

βeta: Felt hard from the ground. 2 distinct cruxes for me. One: gaining the crimps after clipping 3rd draw from side pull with pinky mono for added security. Two: gaining the block from the side pull. | ||

βeta: Fantastic route, high on grade. Crimpy section at the beginning followed by a committing reachy move to a good hold. The last part after the crux is very nice. | ||

βeta: A superb line! Lots of varied moves throughout the route and the amazing flowstone finish felt like icing on the cake! A very worthwhile climb and not chossy at all! | βeta? | |

βeta: Amazing sequence of fingery moves up to the jug, where you can have a good rest. One last hardish move to gain the block. 6a from the block to the chain with some amazing and satisfying flowstone climbing | ||

βeta: I agree with dirty but not the awful crimps and disappointing finish. It's a worthwhile route although the rock is a little suspect/friable at the top so be carful. Probably only 1 star in current condition but has some nice climbing nonetheless. | βeta? | |

βeta: New bolt line to the right of Is Vic There is Sanjet Kiss a tough 7a+. The start and finish are still rather dirty but the middle section (crux) is fairly clean and has some good crimpy wall moves. | βeta? | |
