4m. NEW FOOTHOLD NOW ERODED AT START CLEAN YOUR SHOES AND DON'T CLIMB WHEN DAMP, NO LONGER 7B+......On the opposite side of the boulder to Awooga is a blunt arete with a series of flared cracks and a whole lot of curves. start with RH in the middle slot and left on a sloper at similar height and make a hard pull on (no french starts) after mauling into the next slot, begin working leftwards along the sloping hump to a never ending top out.
