Rockfax Description
An excellent climb. Start just left of a large boulder embedded in the ground. Climb the lower wall past a flake to a shallow, left-facing groove. Make technical moves up this and then right to a thin crack and tiny corner. Climb the crack and left-hand bolt-line up the wall to finish. © Rockfax

βeta: It was reported that one of the holds on the crux broke in Jul 2015. Still doable but now harder. Not sure on the grade consensus though (ie is it still 7b+?).
