85m, 4 pitches. This great route climbs the wall and roofs between Big Dong and Kangeroo Wall.
The first pitch (E4 5c) requires a steady head with climbing on smeary footholds and spaced gear. The second is fairly well protected and has good holds pulling through the roof stacks high on the wall.
At the time of writing (June 2016) access to the earth bank and tree belays at the top of P2 seemed not possible due to plant growth. There is an in situ sling & maillons on a tree just below the bank. 50m ropes will reach the floor from here.
