Rockfax Description
Start right of Dragon's Route and crimp to the break then climb powerfully up the shallow groove in the centre of the wall, passing good gear in the break with difficulty. The best route on the wall, but beware the final moves. © Rockfax

βeta: Just to be clear re history, I led this first without pegs and then allowed Nadim Siddiqui to talk me into adding 2 pegs because he said nobody would ever do it again without. John Smith was unimpressed and said I ought not to have retrofitted the pegs. On reflection John was right. | βeta? | |

βeta: I\'m not sure that the(cemented in) pegs have been seen for a long time so E5 would be more realistic? Dare you say it but this is virtually always climbed as a toprope problem. Oh yes, the description should say Dragon Route not Dragon\'s Back | βeta? | |
