80m, 2 pitches. Starts directly above the stretcher box, climbing the wall between a rightwards slanting corner and a flake.

1 5c (40m) Check to see if the stretcher is in the box as a fall from above the crux might result in you needing it! Pull onto the steep wall from the left end of the box. Move boldly up and right to reach an undercling. Move left and follow the shallow groove to the top where an awkward move rightwards is rewarded with a small wire. Step back left and climb directly up to easier ground. Follow the rib to belay on the left underneath the imposing roof.

P2 5b. (40m) Climb the initial crack of Murray’s Route. From here climb directly up to a niche at the left end of the of the roof. Pull steeply into the groove of Eliminator. Once established in the groove above, traverse 5m right across the wall entering another vague groove. Follow this on easy ground to belay below Easy Terrace.
