55m, 2 pitches.
Begins easily up the arete to find a minimal belay point about 15/20m up before the vegetated slab. One hog (recommend backing up). Second pitch is up the vegetated slab and onto a small shelf on the arete. From here you can see a line of about 3 or 4 hogs through the crux. Overhanging and EXTREMELY loose boulders and pillars of chalk. Delicate tool and foot placements required. Slowly work your way through. Rock fall is unavoidable so make sure your second is protected. Continue up and onto less angled ground. Still hugely unstable. Finish on 1-2 meters or so of vertical chalk to top out.
A very bold route indeed. Technically not hard but the instability of the chalk makes the route extremely volatile.
