40m, 2 pitches.
1. 25m 5b. This route takes the straight groove above the orange slab. Climb directly up the lower wall using side pulls to gain the ramp (or bypass on the right). From the ramp, the first few moves are on the left wall, reaching right into the groove to a good wire placement. Above this there are some marginal runners with intricate climbing. After a small ledge, the line continues with solid runners in a wonderful clean granite corner. Belay below a small overhang.
2. 15m 5a. Climb the overhang with difficulty using reachy side pulls to an easy angled slab which finishes on the left.
