70m, 2 pitches. The prominent vertical crackline near the right edge of the slabs. Scramble up to beneath the crack. 1, 35m 5b Follow the crack (possible belay at 20m) through an awkward bulge high up then slightly right and direct to a thread belay. 2, 35m 5b Continue in the same line up the steep wall above the belay then the fine crack above.
This route was given a good clean, tat replaced and krabs left at belays/abs in June 2011.
