Rockfax Description
Classic and bold. From the right-hand corner, climb a tiny groove to a poor rest. Swing left and pull up with difficulty (small cam - hard to place) then make a layback/stretch to the deep break. Move right and use a pocket to start the final wall. © Rockfax

βeta: Pulling on is hard for the short. I protected it with a runner in the crack out right. Cheating I know, but better than a broken ankle. | βeta? | |

βeta: I seem to remember getting a couple of good small rocks, rather than a small friend, in the bottom of the flake when I did it, although it's a fair few years ago now! | ||
