Rockfax Description
An excellent climb; long and interesting. Ascend the buttress front with a jig right and left through the bulges, then finish slightly right up the well-positioned final slab. © Rockfax

βeta: Be wary of some loose rock around the bulge. The right side of the block (split by a vertical crack) under the bulge booms (wires probably okay in this but avoid stuffing it with cams!). There is also a useful side-pull block going through the bulge, which flexed quite a lot (I used something else). In combination, these could lead to a bad day at the office if not treated with caution.
