A classic bold route up the truncated crack and scoop above. Positive climbing up the crack leads to the break. Step up and left to a good rest and okay gear at the base of the runnel and contemplate what lies ahead. Several metres of precarious balancing and fear lead to salvation in a scoop out right. Continue leftwards more easily to finish.

βeta: Large flake to the left of the crack at the start is booming. Will be a tougher proposition when it goes.
