Rockfax Description
Deservedly popular; this fine route links the weaknesses in the left-hand side of the steep wall. Climb the flake-line to the break, then try and find the easiest traverse line into the crack on the left. Follow the scoop above to tree belays. © Rockfax

βeta: Tree is rotten- loathe to trust this. We added new 10mm static to the lower off around the tree above Midnight at the Oasis. This is in good condition and accessible by a short traverse along the top from 2SS. Take care with rock here.

βeta: Traverse is easier if you're tall, but then getting into the crack is more powerful so probably easier if you're short! Pumpy route
