22m. The original route of the crag. Start on the right and take the easiest line up and left to a tricky move gaining a junction with the DNA arĂȘte. Continue across the face of the buttress to the top of One Chromosome's Missing, before finishing up the little hanging groove. Awesome positions abound!

βeta: Apart from the first couple of moves up the crack which are dirty the route stays very clean and should be climbable year round. A quick abseil from the birch at the top of the pinnacle as we did 29/9/23 can brush this part prior to an ascent. (note it was made climbable rather than fully clean)
