Rockfax Description
A nice route rather spoilt by overuse. From a polished block, climb shelving and unhelpful rock to gain the centre of the ramp that runs up left into the main crack. Finish up this. © Rockfax
FA. Eric Byne early 1930s.

βeta: Nice route throughout. Decent gear. The crux is basically the first couple of moves to get established on the ledge. | βeta? | |
