The attractive angular arete. Climb the short crack and lower arete, then step awkwardly up onto the main arete which is followed past a couple of steeper moves at half-height. © Rockfax

βeta: Nice climb and easy on the arms when you're pumped from lay-backing and jamming round the corner. The easy slab section on the front face is slightly run-out, plenty of gear in the breaks. A big cam goes in the break before the nicly exposed crux on the arete. | βeta? | |

βeta: There are bomber nuts and small/medium cams for all the tricky parts, the rets is very easy although run-out in the middle. Fair at HS. | βeta? | |

βeta: A good route with some reasonable run outs to get you thinking if you are close to your limits. Harder than I expected as the '89 guide has it at Severe! I didn't use any large cams though, I protected the crux with a nut in the break. | βeta? | |
