The thuggish off-width to the right of Lunar Bass - An esoteric line but a smasher!
Start in the right hand side of the cave under the overhanging wall.
A reachy grab to a horizontal break allows a traverse right into the corner/chimney, whereby bridging and grunting upwards commences.
Hauling rightwards onto the huge ledge at half height is allowed but not necessary.
Take a break before moving left below the obvious crackline.
Place good gear before making some very awkward jams in the flared pod to good holds in the off-width. More gear (make sure it's good) should give the brain confidence to smash through some surprisingly steep terrain and often painful positions above.
Moving beyond the twin cracks and good holds, traverse left to meet up with Lunar Bass in its upper reaches to the tree and belay.
