Rockfax Description
A tight line but with variety of testing climbing. Ascend the small right-facing corner just right of the low sapling and then the leaning wall above on its left to reach slabby ground. Now head straight up past a peg at an overlap and onto pockets to join and finish up The Laughing Cavaliers. © Rockfax

βeta: There\'s a huge detached tree trunk at the top tangled up in the canopy. It\'s attached to the anchor with a fixed line to keep it from going all the way down, but it would hurt anyone at the anchor very badly if it fell. I backed the anchor up to the tree behind it in case the fall damages it, but what it really needs is an empty crag and a good kick to clear the top.
