UKC

Rockfax Description
Climb past the overlap to the wall just right of the arete. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Climb past the hollow flakes with care and onto the ledge. The hard to reach bolt can be pre clipped by first climbing up the corner. From the ledge pull around the arete briefly then swing back around with difficulty and continue up the righthand side of the arete. It is possible that the grade was mixed up with Rang Thane!

βeta: It seems sensible to climb up the corner crack first to pre place the rope in the hard to reach bolt otherwise you will risk hitting the ledge if you swing off the arete. There is no way this climbs the lower half of the arete on the right at 6b+. Moving around to the good flat edge by the next bolt is still a hard clip and closer to 6c+.
