25m. Brilliant climbing up the thin cracks in the centre of the slab, gained by traversing in from Liquidator at the level of the scoops with a high(ish) runner in Liquidator. A common variation is to leave Liquidator higher up, making the route E3 5c.

βeta: No need to take larger cams for the (hollow) block at the top, there is a good threaded block further back (rope and maillon freshly placed today). A double rack of small cams (finger size down to micro) make this feel pretty amenable for E4. Reckon original line is best, going higher as in the guidebook photo actually doesn't look any easier to me. Beautiful route!
