45m, 2 pitches.
Rockfax Description
Easier than it looks. The start below the centre of the small cave - usually marked by some threads.
1) 5c, 30m. Climb straight over the roof then follow the crack (threads) to a ledge at the base of a wide chimney. Step right and climb the wall just right of the chimney until forced into it at its top. Move up right to belay on a ledge just left of Rollerwall.
2) 5c, 15m. Step back left and climb directly up the wall above (peg on the first ascent). © Rockfax
