Rockfax Description
Gain the crack in the south-facing side-wall from the right by a short traverse along the horizontal break. Once entered it gives classic jamming. A direct start is HVS 5c and a left-hand Finish is a good solid HVS 5a, combine them for a good trip. © Rockfax

βeta: Did this with the direct start, which delivers you to the crux beefcaked. After that just sublime, bomber jams and enough for the feet. A steep juggy final fluorish too, always the best way to top out.

βeta: A joyous jamming experience that one can really romp up. Does exactly what it says on the tin but not too much of a battle.
