Rockfax Description
To the right of the open corner is a blunt arete which is undercut on its right-hand side. This route follows the crack to the left of the arete. Not very well named, thankfully. © Rockfax

βeta: If you can jam you know it's in the bag as soon as you sink the first one into the crack. If you can't... Gear's ok anyway, lots of big wires, some cams, monster thread. | βeta? | |

βeta: I didn't think this was terribly hard or poorly protected for an HVS. Have you ever tried The Sloth? Conditions were good when I lead it, but anyone used to the overhangs at indoor walls would be ok for strength on this. | βeta? | |

βeta: Watched someone climb this with a rack of cams. Nearly all shifted or fell out. Pembroke cracks aren't parallel. | βeta? | |

βeta: I think this one is really conditions-dependent. I've done it when it was dirty & seeping and found it desperately pumpy, but in good condition it's a nice climb. | βeta? | |
