20m. 4 metres left of Canopy Route (HVS) is an open, clean, blank, rightwards slanting groove. Start just left of a ground level shield of rock; part detached and shaped like a Rhinos head (obvious!). Climb the steep off balance slanting groove past dodgy flakes above the rhino to gain a small spike(sling) below a good handrail ledge with good gear(wires/cams) @ around 6m. Pull leftwards onto ledges and trend upwards and left climbing more easily on good rock with gear left of an ivy vegetated corner until below a grey/blackened, cracked rock wall. Gain the ledge on top of this taking care not to pull on three large loose blocks sitting on the ledge. Breach the headwall in a fine position using the obvious right slanting crack which eats cams.
