53m, 5 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A fine jamming pitch followed by easier but well-positioned climbing. Begin at the conspicuous jamming crack that rises above the tidal pool.
1) 5a, 18m. Climb the formidable crack to a ledge and then its easier continuation to a ledge and belay. A very good pitch - if you can jam!
2) 4b, 25m. Move right into a crack on the main buttress (shared with Flannel Avenue) and climb it to a left-facing corner capped by a roof. Climb the corner and pass the roof on its left, from where easier moves reach a belay ledge and block.
3) 4a, 10m. The face and cracks above the block lead to the top. This pitch is covered in lichen and finishing up the final pitch of Flannel Avenue might be a better option. © Rockfax
