Rockfax Description
The widening corner-crack, gives a challenging pitch. Start on the left-hand side of the ledge beneath the widening crack. Follow the crack to the second ledge and prepare for battle with the tougher upper section. This requires some large gear to protect it adequately. © Rockfax

βeta: Regarding 'large gear', nothing bigger than a blue cam needed (two blues and two golds are nice to have). A bit crunchy but good.
