Rockfax Description
The impressive line up the middle of the headwall directly above the cave entrance. Start up Lost In Thought and Lost In Time and break left along the lip of the cave via hard moves to reach the line up the headwall. Finish at the newer lower-off on Soulsports. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
A brilliant route. Up there with the best 7c+'s in Yorshire when in condition. Only 7c+ if you find the easiest sequence or 8a if you don't !
IMPORTANT. Be careful while stripping the route to not hit the opposite banking. There is an in-situ stripping carabiner to help you strip the route safely.

βeta: The 'magic sequence' turns this 8a into a 7c. Can you find it ? Update. First knee-bar was a comfortable no hands one but the hold has broken a bit (summer '20). Not such a bomber kneebar any more. 7c+ now. | ||
