Rockfax Description
An improbable but rewarding climb that transports you magically and steeply through an area of hanging rock while still giving solid support. Step right near the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Not a necessary hold, but some of the rock above the fourth bolt is very fragile. A gentle tap dropped a large block to the floor. Otherwise a stellar climb.

βeta: The missing lower bolt has thankfully been replaced, but be careful of the earthy finish

βeta: 1st bolt is back on. No loose rock on obvious/required holds. Loose block up and left of final overhang (off route).

βeta: The first bolt appears to have been chopped as of time of writing (04/2019). I'm unsure if this is due to concern over the rock quality in the route's upper section, but maybe best avoiding the line until someone can clarify.
