Rockfax Description
Start as for Villeta.
1) 25m. Move up to the small tree and head rightwards to join Schmutzig midway. Follow a line of good holds right to a belay on large perched block.
2) 4a, 20m. Gain a horizontal finger-crack on the slab above the belay. Move right to the edge and swing down via a hidden hold into the corner of Emerald Point. Cross the slab and gain the groove of Banana Boat and finish over its final overhang. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A really enjoyable and escapable girdle across the main slab. Start at the base of the descent gully as for Villeta.

1) Move up to follow the obvious traverse crack rightwards to the grassy crack and further following excellent jugs to belay on the obvious block ledge 15ft below the top.

2) Step up onto the slab above the belay to reach a horizontal finger crack moving right along this to the arête. A steep swing down right into the grove will prove easier than it looks after finding the hidden hold! Continue right across the slab at the same height to the next arête which is rounded to finish up a roof crack. (Cicerone)
