UKC Logbook Description
Climbers Club Dartmoor (2017) P20.

Erroneously referred to as "A Fist Full of Slopers" in the Climbers Club Dartmoor (2017) guidebook. The actual A Fist Full of Slopers is problem 7 and not named. Now given it's own name by the presumed first ascensionist to avoid future confusion.

The obvious rising traverse of the long low boulder found to the right of the Top Boulder and above Dark Devotion. From sitting at the right arete and finishing rocking on to the top at the left arete.

Jason Maddick.

βeta: Best version of this problem is starting with your right hand on the obvious flake, starting with both hands on it is contrived and also ridiculously low to the point it is a lying start not sitting and feels silly V3 is fair this way
