2) traverse left across a turfy ledge (break in slope) to a scoop, then the short crux corner (50 m).
3) Follow the ridge to the wall then follow rising ledges up and left (heading left of the small tree not visible from the top of pitch 2) (40 m).
4) Continue easily along the ridge before one last short rocky spur (40 m).
