Rockfax Description
A similar but harder climb to its neighbour Out of the Blue. Start between the crack in the bulge of Out of the Blue and the corner that defines the right side of the wall.
Climb boldly up the wall to better holds and gear. Follow a series of reasonable holds up the sustained upper wall to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: This route is not as badly protected at the start as it first seems. There is a space for 2 friends diagonally placed under the seemingly creaky jug flak on the left at approx 15' . Traversing in from the E2 to avoid the start spils the character and line of the route and I'm stunned that Nipper Harrison even suggested it!

βeta: Needs a steadier approach to some of the rock and gear than most classics here but still would only rate E3 on most crags.

βeta: Well worth three stars. Hairy climbing for Sharpnose, although nothing out of the ordinary compared to most Culm crags.
