Rockfax Description
A fine climb up the clean face and left-trending finger-flake. Climb the lower wall on superb rock to an overlap. Reach left to a thin flake-crack which leads strenuously to the top and a good finishing hold. © Rockfax

βeta: Decent route, despite polish. Final flake is a great feature. 6b, not 6c. It's an endurance route; no individual moves higher than UK tech 5b. | βeta? | |

βeta: Found a good rest just below the finger crack using a jug slightly left, seemed reasonable given it was a key foot also | ||

βeta: It gets 6b in the new definitive guide - and I added an extra bolt low down because of previous comments. This is the real world, we try our best but sometimes the bolts aren't always exactly where we'd like them to be. No one says a sport route shouldn't get your adrenaline flowing a little bit! | βeta? | |

βeta: Quite a gap between the 2nd & 3rd bolts - if your limit was 6a+ it would be scary | βeta? | |
