Rockfax Description
One of the best of Dartmoor's fun micro-classics. Start under the ledge below the right-slanting flake. Move onto the ledge and make a tough swing out right before continuing along the flake to a tricky move up a short crack to finish. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Once voted the best VS in the country (perhaps a somewhat bold statement but a very good short route none the less)! Follow the huge jug filled flake on the eastern face of the Perched Block. Those with confidence will lock their arms out and find this easy, but otherwise intimidating and pumpy!

βeta: One bit of gear. Would have been enough had I not tried to stand on the flake. Bad idea. Could have had a nasty ending. | ||
