Rockfax Description
50m. Scramble up a heathery slab to a steep stepped groove-line. Climb leftwards up this on big holds, then go up right along a break to the right edge of the buttress. Step right around the edge and make some bold moves to gain the diagonal crack of Night Falls. Climb the crack just right of the edge (as for Night Falls) and continue past the large ledge and up the blunt rib to the top. Low in the grade.

βeta: Perhaps the best route we did here, sustained all the way to the top, and with a bit of everything thrown in - steep jugs, bold slab, finger crack, arete. I think E2 5b is probably fair for this, maybe e1 if you climb the crack right of the slab after moving round the first arete?

βeta: Friendly for the grade. Take a lot of care to avoid rope drag.
