16m.
Start location:
Start about 10 metres to the right of Still Nice and Still Sleazy, under a hanging groove. There is a large rusty metal cable hanging to the right of the groove.
Pitch descriptions:
Climb scrappy rock behind the tree to a small cracked wall. Go up this then move right under the little roof to a hold under the groove.
Make a crux move to a good hold in the bottom of the groove (watch your head on the end of the cable). Next move left onto the black slab and go up this to a step right. Now follow the final groove to exit with care onto the rubble covered ledge. Tree belay. Atter the start the rock improves a lot and there are plenty of natural gear placements almost the whole way up.
Additional info:
Route was cleaned on abseil then soloed.
