A highly technical, varied and sustained pitch. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A sustained pitch. Make a difficult move past the first bolt until a ramp line leads right. Now the crux. Step high to reach positive holds. Continued delicate climbing leads past a bulge and easier climbing.

βeta: Loose block on the right as you reach good holds. Definitely move belayer out of the way, and be gentle

βeta: Nice clean climbing, pretty intense for 7a, well bolted, some great moves, however single mailons on each lower off causes Lots of twists in the rope during lowering. If I go back to this cliff I will improve the lower off

βeta: In the easy top third there are two obligatory blocks that look suspect. However the feet are good so you can pull lightly. Maybe direct your belayer left out of the fall line.
