28/04/22 Raven nest right next to red shift. 4 fledglings and a noisy father! Quite big so I suspect they'll have flown the roost in a few weeks.
20m.
A classic crackline with exceptionally good jams and a crux bulge to reach some respite in the upper groove. Finishing totally direct is more like 5c and harder than anything on Flying Dragon. Swallows more medium cams than you'll ever own!

βeta: I'm assuming the 5c in the description is the final blocky crap looking 2 meters at the end and not the lovely sustained final crack? | βeta? | |

βeta: Ran out of cams near the top and had an \'Oh God! Oh shit!\' moment before I stuffed a hex in. Gold cams go wisely. Felt very hard for me being my first jamming route. | ||
