Rockfax Description
A popular pumper that follows a fine finger-crack. The rock anchor bolts are out-of-bounds for holds! Start at the bottom of a thin right-trending crack below an overhang. Climb the strenuous crack past the overhang and up the grey wall until it fades below a massive ring bolt. Move up to just below the ring bolt (runner only!) traverse the thin break left and move up to a short crack and easier climbing to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Finally got this sucker after 2 years. Thanks Coney for the support and belay. Just about had the strength to clip the ring bolt and then head for 'home' to the sharp crack. | βeta? | |

βeta: Finally got this sucker on TR. Being fresh changes the landscape. Amazing that even after one go the arms were not packed with the same power after one burn. This sucker is gonna get before the end of the year. Beta down, gear needs working. Well done to Noble and Bisset for finally nailing this on the lead. Fair play chaps! | βeta? | |
