Rockfax Description
Quality wall climbing with a frustrating crux and perhaps the best move on the wall. Moving into Strange Little Girl at the break gives a decent 6c. © Rockfax

βeta: The nut on the bolt below the big move is loose again... Did it finger-tight as best I could but didn't have a spanner to do a proper job of it.

βeta: Very flexy jug rail/foot at the start. Looks like it's detached from the wall too. Try and only use the right hand side of it until some hero comes along with glue

βeta: 60 % of the good hold after the crux (on top of the sloper) was extremely loose and was removed as it was very dangerous. This removal doesn't change the difficulty of the route. The remaining 30% is loose but seems to hold as it is well inserted into the wall. Be careful anyway and watch out.

βeta: Note, the nut on the bolt below the big move was loose. I finger tightened this as didn't have a spanner. Take care.
