Rockfax Description
A good powerful line through the underlaps. A bolt protects a hard move which is a bit easier for the tall. After that it gets very pumpy, though on big holds. The finish is usually a jungle bash through brambles.. © Rockfax

βeta: Did it last night, traversed right from the bolt and made a very long reach to a small hold, then another hard move to get established. After that it really is jugs jugs jugs. Not sure if I found the easiest way of doing the crux, but definitely very 6b that way, and hard to see where the E5 comes from, so I'd give it E4 6b, just maybe E5 to onsight the 6b crux, can't see how reach would make that much of a difference, you'd really have to be an ape. Hint: it's actually quite reasonable to climb back to the ground after clipping the bolt -I did it twice before going for it. | ||
