60m, 2 pitches. Start left of Could Be Worse, a few meters up Ramp Route.

1. 30m Climb the left hand of two wide icy gullies and continue on easier ground to below a short steep crack, up this to a good platform and block belay.
2. 30m Above is a cracked arete, strenuously climb the crack (thin and poorly protected) until level with a ledge on the right. Awkwardly pull up onto this and climb a series of short difficult corners before moving left to a turfy groove which is followed to the top.
