120m, 3 pitches.
A pleasant slab climb starting at the same point as "Socket slabs".
1. 45m. Ascent slabs directly until a tongue of heather is reached in the right corner just before the terrace. Step up right to join the last few metres of the second pitch of "Mystic". Block belay.
2. 60m. Cross terrace to between "Socket slabs" and "Mystic". A belay can be found under a thin overlap flake. Climb the above slabs aiming for the obvious big internal corner in the headwall. Block belay on small terrace below corner. ( A heather ledge at 50m could be used for rope lengths of this size.)
3. 15m. Ascend the obvious corner to finish.
