Rockfax Description
Start up the left-hand side of the Sickle flake. Make eye-wateringly wide bridging moves up the groove protected by very small wires above a worrying spike. At the overlap, step right into the overhanging groove left of the V-groove of Brant. Finish on the ledge above. Escape up or back down Brant. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Climb the left or right flake crack of Sickle to start. Wide and sustained bridging leads to the overlap. Step right and climb the short, steep groove (just left of Brant), then continue up the wall above via a flake crack (some dubious rock). Belay on the slab above. Easy traverse left to the SS Special abseil.
