A magnificent climb up the steep thin crack, vaguely comparable to Northumberland Wall at Great Wanney. No hard moves but fairly uphill. Gain the crack from the ledge and large block, and follow it via good moves and perfect protection until amongst the steepness. Stride right to a lonely ledge, from where a stiff pull gains an easier (and slightly dusty) groove. Weave delightfully up this to finish.
