Rockfax Description
The exposed headwall is the highlight of this excellent route. Start in the corner right of Hell's Wall.
1) 6a, 14m. Climb the easy-angled corner, then the much steeper corner and crack to a ledge and tree belay.
2) 6a, 18m. Move left above the edge of the overhang until a long move off finger-holds gains the final wall and groove. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Excellent wall climbing in a superb position on the classic top pitch. The first pitch is often avoided, with good reason as it's nasty and not nearly as fun. 1. 6a. Climb the easy slab then the awkward, slippery and tiring groove to the belay ledge (or scramble in). 2. 6a. Traverse left with interest along the lip of the overhang to a vague shakeout. Crank up the wall above via long reaches (lunges for the short), to gain an easier top-out or maybe an air-time view of Hellish!
