Rockfax Description
Worthwhile. Get into the hanging groove and exit right below the overhang to reach a short crack that leads to ledges. Climb the face above without much gear, or escape off left. © Rockfax

βeta: Enjoyable step right to leave the groove with good handholds on a flake. Looks harder than it is but might be upseting for a first foray into the grade.
