52m, 2 pitches.
The steep right arete of the crag. Start below an obvious groove to its right.
1). 30m (4c), climb the left wall and a groove to gain the ridge and follow it to a good spike (ledge on the right). From the spike climb the steep wall to reach better holds leading to a grassy corner.
2.) 22m (4b), climb past a large block to a horizontal crack which is hand traversed into a short corner (junction with Tophet Wall). Pull up onto the top of the pinnacle on the right and climb more easily to the top.
