Rockfax Description
The long crack has a tricky layback move to reach a rest on the right then an awkward crack leads into the final short groove. © Rockfax

βeta: Nice route seconded it as i dont enjoy cracks too much but you dont spend much time in the crack, thug up the bottom then layback the flake, i only used the crack for balance. | ||

βeta: My second HVS and would have to say the first real one. Proper stuff this not a top end VS. Leaving the safety of the flake may prove difficult...the crux. Went and did tody's wall after this,felt like 4b compared to P/crack | βeta? | |

βeta: My first HVS onsight, loved every minute of it. Never too hard but it keeps coming at you. Long legs might get you a rest level with the roof on the right. | βeta? | |
