Rockfax Description
An impressive arete pitch. Fortunately there are more holds and runners than appearances suggest, though it is still bold! Small wires and a big reach both help. © Rockfax

βeta: Very bold but steady low down to a tough and very reachy (for most) but well protected crux right at the top

βeta: There might be more runners than appearances suggest but I wouldn't like to take a fall on any of the first three that are shown in the picture. A bit bold for the grade. The crux can also be done with a wrist jam!

βeta: A bit bold at first, but the crux is well protected and seems to require either thin fingers or a long reach
