Rockfax Description
An adventurous route requiring precise gear placement. Climb easily past two grassy ledges and past an overhang and up thin cracks to a triangular niche. Bridge left under the lip (loose rock above) into a small groove and then up to a ledge. Move up again to an other ledge below the midway overhang. Traverse right and pull over at a thin crack on to the face above. Climb directly up the face and make bold moves over the final overhang. © Rockfax
