Rockfax Description
A stunning line between much harder climbs. Start at an arete on the left side of the ledge above The Plunger (best accessed via abseil). Climb the arete to a ledge and continue up a flake-crack until level with the large roof. Make a tricky move up and left to a groove and then up left again to another groove. Traverse right and follow a ledge system that heads up rightwards to the top. © Rockfax
