One of the few good clean pieces of rock in the coire. The route is fairly sustained at 4b with just a couple of 4c moves. Protection is quite thin in places. The only real negative is that the route is very escapable, from the belays and often mid pitch.

βeta: I personally found the Route Finding difficult and the climbing a little harder than the grade suggests. (probably due to going slightly off track) take care
