65m, 3 pitches.
P1. Climb Great Eastern to the first stance.
P2. Climb out right and up the good crack as for Desert Storm, but continue up the steep thin crack above (some rattly holds) onto the arete above. Climb this in an excellent position but with more loose rock and little good gear to a sound belay.
P3. Traverse right to finish up the chockstone blocked chimney.

βeta: Will become much better with traffic. First half climbs the good initial crack of Great Eastern, then the traverse and good crack on Desert Storm. New section above is a little rattly currently but should hopefully end up as a nice E2 5b one day? | βeta? | |
