Rockfax Description
45m. Another bold trip up the big wall. Start at a shallow groove 5m right of Acapulco. Climb right-trending grooves to beneath the roof. Traverse right around a rib to a small ledge (possible stance). Pull through the break in the roof (peg) and continue diagonally left to a good footledge. Move up and right into a left-trending line and follow this before moving right near the top to finish up quartz.
