Rockfax Description
The crack and big pockets on the right lead to an overlap (thread and weird rest) and a pumpy finale up the short wall. Escaping right is easier but is only for those lacking in scruples.

βeta: Really rather good. Satisfyingly steep and super-safe, surely the obligatory wall finish (exposed but positive) makes it a solid 2 stars??

βeta: Bit "eliminatey" at the top but the crack at the start is surprisingly easy, closer to 5a than 5c
