Rockfax Description
30m. The left-hand crack up the centre of the overhanging wall and roof above. Start left of the rock pool and climb up to gain the crack, then the roof. Pull through and gain a large break then follow pockets up the headwall to the top.

βeta: I went right at the roof to the flange of TSS. Pulling through at the hairline crack (as in the description and topo) feels harder than 6a and quite eliminate, as you can easily span right to the better holds. On reflection I think the SMC topo is wrong - it's meant to go through at the thin crack directly above the lower crack. | βeta? | |
