Rockfax Description
The bending hand-crack in the overhanging white wall to the right of the corner of Sarcophagus is a great test of jamming technique and perseverance. Start beneath the crack.
Gain the overhanging hand-crack and push on to a rest in a roof-capped niche. Pull out right and climb up and left to join the finishing corner of Sarcophagus. © Rockfax

βeta: More usually, the finish is pull right out of the niche and move up and right to the Combined Ops bolt/peg belay.

βeta: One for the peak raiders - once you're in the crack any competent grit climbers will be home & dry, unfortunately a little bit slippy getting up to the crack...

βeta: The climbing is much more enjoyable than it looks from the ground. Exhausting stuff.
