Rockfax Description
The left-hand flake on the front face is approached by a bold and tricky start, then gives thrilling juggy climbing. Sadly the dinnerplate was smashed years ago. © Rockfax

βeta: Thought this was quite undergraded. I failed to get off the ground on lead, and didn't find it much easier on second! There's little gear too, although the climbing is easier above. Still, it's an appealing line.

βeta: Desperate to start for Severe, and reliant on one minimal piece of protection to prevent a shocking fall. More like VS 4c for that move. Quite a good route because it has a really nice finish.
