Rockfax Description
Climb the flake to ledges then follow the shallow groove above (small gear) until it becomes necessary to swing onto the exposed left arete. Care is required with the grassy finish. © Rockfax

βeta: The crux move seems close to the midway ledge, couldn\'t find an great gear to protect it other than a dubious wire behind a hollow flake | βeta? | |

βeta: A very good route that deserves more ascents. The misleading wording in the BMC guidebook wording probably puts people off 'Protection for the groove is not fantastic'. In fact there is a bomber wire here (not a micro). Cleaner than it looks too. | βeta? | |

βeta: Very good, safe enough but with a committing feel in places. Finish left at the top. | βeta? | |

βeta: Definitely not HVS and a real frightner with lots of grass pulling at the top. Not a route I would recommend to anyone. | βeta? | |
