70m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
70m. Excellent climbing up the fine crack-line in the silver-streaked wall between Vulcan Wall and Clinging On. Start at cracks just left of the vertical crack of Clinging On.
1. 25m 5c Climb to a small overlap and follow the crack above to a hard move left to a ledge (the Vulcan Wall ledge). Traverse left to a block.
2. 45m 6a Step right off the block, climb cracks and go right over a curving overlap. Move up and right to pull into the main crack, then follow it with difficulty to better holds. Continue up the excellent crack to finish right of a large precarious block.

UKC Logbook Description
A brilliant line up the slab right of Vulcan Wall. Possibly meant to be titled Uhura in keeping with Star Trek theme?
