Rockfax Description
A slight eliminate. Climb the shallow groove just left of the arete. Where it ends, gain Autophobia at its final few moves. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The grade is wrong its only HS ( you have Catapaphobia as HS is that not the VS ) Also it does not
Enough gear to top of corner and then run out until near top. Not a HS to climb if your only just starting to tick off HS. There are harder HS in N Wales than this one.

βeta: It does say bold after groove in ground up guide, but its quite run out from half way up. No a lead for a HS leader. Also the VS grade is well overgraded. Ground up and rock fax have different graded for these routes. This is more like HS

βeta: Can't really recommend this route unless you wait until highish-tide and treat it as a deep water solo! There isn't any useful protection to be found in the upper section. I'm surprised this isn't mentioned in the (awful) Ground-Up guide.
