Rockfax Description
45m. A tremendous excursion through impressive ground, but bold to start. Start beneath the short right-facing corner between Morbidezza and the crack of Rat Race. A boulder problem start leads into the corner (old peg runner near its top). Traverse left into the big Morbidezza groove and follow this for a few moves until it is possible to traverse back right on the lip of a small roof (optional belay). Climb the slabby wall to a corner under the capping roofs. Continue traversing right under the roofs in a spacewalking position, moving up at the end to finish.

UKC Logbook Description
Boulder into the scoop left of Rat Race. clip and back up the peg runner above then climb past the peg and head left into the great groove of Mousetrap. Up this for a couple of metres and then traverse right to the old hanging stance of Rat Race. Continue up pitch 2 along the roofs to a tricky last move. Superb.
