UKC

Rockfax Description
Fine varied moves. The start is run out, but there is good gear thereafter.
1) 4a, 33m. As for Gargoyle Direct.
2) 6a, 40m. Climb the wall to an overlap and move right past it and on up to a large spike. Move left and ascend the wall until a traverse right can be made for 5m to below a conspicuous thin right-leading crack. Follow this to the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
One of the best route names on the planet and this alone is worth the walk in.
