Rockfax Description
A compelling line up the broad rib left of the large corner that dries quickly and is on excellent rock. Start on some slabby rock under a distinctive curved groove at 9m.
1) 5b, 20m. Move up to the curved groove and follow it and the continuation line up the rib to a stance and belay. A technical pitch on fine rock.
2) 5b, 23m. Climb the steep continuation groove for 12m until a rib on the left can be reached. Follow this to a grassy ledge.
3) 5a, 12m. Finish up the crack in the wall. © Rockfax
