43m.
Recleaned, rebolted, and fully sport version (has been for many years)) with a new start added. Good climbing despite a few friable flakes.
Start 3m right of Fatal Attraction at a short flake. Pull up onto a ledge above the flake and make a rising traverse right to reach a broken scoop (on the original). From its top follow a faint crack line to reach a good ledge just left of the prominent grassy break. Move up
and step left to climb a steep wall on small holds to gain the slab above. Move up left and finish up the ragged finishing crack of Fatal Attraction.

βeta: Sorry about that folks. Not sure what’s happened there or why the glue hadn’t mixed? Went to replace the bolt today but someone has already done so. Cheers Pete W (28.05.25). | βeta? | |
