Rockfax Description
The right arete of the left-hand tower then move out left and gird yourself for gritty shelving holds and a grim exit. A long-time HVS that has caught a few folks out over the years. Climbed on its right-hand side is an eliminate but probably worth HVS 5a. © Rockfax

βeta: The obvious thing to do is put gear as high up as you can in the crack right of the arete from the ledge in the chimney. If it's not graded for this, it should be. Then go onto the front and there's decent gear soon. It shouldn't get E2 for this part. Then there are all sorts of disgusting green breaks with good gear to the top where the is a pretty hard move. Probably hard E1 and at least a star. | ||
