24m.
Climb the first few metres of Agamemnon, place a high runner or two level with two Imps (other small brass wires available) pre-placed just below the triangular side-pull. Down climb until level with a down pointing spike on the left. Climb to the spike and make hard moves up and slightly right past the Imps to the a large slippery sidepull. From the sidepull climb left and then back right to a small Basalt column and under-clings. Good gear. Move up and right until it is possible to stand on the top of the spike of Agamemnon. Arrange gear before climbing into the base of the steep v-groove above which is level with a flying arête on the right. Pull onto the arête using a hidden hold on the right and climb it to the top.

βeta: To climb this route at the grade, two pre-placed brass wires were used and a side runner level with them. To climb it without would take the grade up a fair amount. | βeta? | |
