25m. The right hand line, starting below an in situ knotted rope in a thread. Steady climbing past the knotted rope and a traverse leftwards lead to a left facing groove, where the fun begins. Fire up steep ground past several breaks and flatties, trending right to an uncomfortable semi sit down rest on a small ledge below a roof. Step out onto the head wall just left with space below your feet and climb up more or less direct on flatties and pockets. An in situ lower off may be in place, otherwise go up and left on the best rock available (don’t finish direct as it’s very loose).

Nick Dixon May/2020.
