25m. Start just to the right of Daydream, boulder up an obvious blank wall until established (with your feet) on the small ledge in its centre; place a high runner in the crack of Daydream. Now follow this rightward-trending crack (Daydream goes off to the left) with good protection until the niche of Zebedee is reached. Continue directly, still following the same crack (Zebedee goes to the tree on the left) and make a hard, well-protected move to reach easy ground. Continue up the rib with little further gear (if desired, there is a good siderunner in the Daydream groove on the left), but easy climbing to the bolts on Daydream and scramble to the top as for that climb.

Variations:

- The bouldery start can be sidestepped on the left by doing the start of Daydream, the hard move to get off the Zebedee niche can be sidestepped on the left by shortly following Zebedee to the left and either traversing back to the right or simply going up the groove of Daydream. Doing the former and either of the latter is less fun, but should reduce the grade to VS 4c.
