Rockfax Description
A sustained traverse with reasonable protection. Start up the wall left of the groove of M1 to the bulge. Pull over then hand traverse left (large cam useful) past a bolt until below a short vertical flake. Pull onto this and continue up and left to a thread. Pull into the crack above (good wire below a poor peg) and continue left to a good rest at the base of the prominent groove. Move up and then left (thin) to the lower-off on High Torquing. Then climb up to join A6 for its upper flake. Finish up this or at a single-bolt lower-off out left. © Rockfax

βeta: There is one thread, a tape placed in June 2003. The peg has a long old (but reasonable nick) sling on it, clippable before a hard move. The bolt before the blank section is fairly new and contains a krab for lowering off High Torqueing. As re finishing up A6, read my comments under A6/Ambler Gambler. If I get time I'll clean up A6. | βeta? | |
