35m.
Not an obvious line but good climbing throughout with a bold start. Start at a short slab just left of a boulder at the right
edge of the crag.
Foot traverse the slab to a groove on its left side. Boldly up this until it gets rather dirty (micro wire just above head height)
then traverse left to a foothold in a parallel groove (good cam a long blind stretch to the left). Puzzle your way up the groove
then more easily to a steeper wall. Pull up into a shallow niche on the right then traverse back left and through a gap in the
heather to a narrow ledge. A short crack proves more troublesome than it looks, then take a leftward slanting ramp to gain
the final slab and climb this directly to the top.
