Rockfax Description
A superb pitch up the thin right-to-left slanting crack system that sprouts from low down on Aladdinsane. Well protected on the hard section and low in the grade.

βeta: Loose block towards the last section of the wider crack near the start. Before trending left on more fingery holds. Don't remember it being loose last season when climbing the route and feel like it might come out this year.
