Rockfax Description
Climb the lower wall to a ledge. Continue up a groove and exciting blue flake. An excellent varied route. Long quickdraws needed for the lower bulge and traverse right. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Between Figgy Dropwise and Dusty Fred's Winter Collection. The lower wall, trending leftwards, leads to a ledge, groove, undercling, compelling blue flake and another groove. Best to use long slings (60cm) on the second and third staples.

βeta: One of the best 6a’s on the island. Committing moves to get on the flake, but all holds are there. 3 stars
