Mike.
Yes rather chilly in the mornings!
I think your grade is fair, although I have seen three different gradings for the route. HVS, 5b in the old Skye guide, VS, 5a in the new Gary Latter guide and VS, 4c in the SMC Scottish Select.
I think maybe adding, "as the crack fades climb to a stance via a key undercut" would help people identify where to move through the overlap.
Lovely route though Mike. Am I right in thinking you did the FA?

Climb the crack right of Petronella, move left as the crack fades and climb to a stance. Continue direct to the top.
Many thanks, mike
