Rockfax Description
65m. Another superb direct line giving a long and sustained pitch with the crux near the top. Start at the most prominent vertical crack in the slab.
1. 55m 6a Climb the crack to its end. Make a move up, then gain the vertical crack just on the left. Follow this to where it fades into tiny cracks and gain a small protruding block above. Step on to the block and step left to a footledge on Uhuru (unfortunately no protection!). Step back right and gain a thin crack and follow it with difficulty past a blank section to gain better holds. Follow these up right into a final crack to under the roofs. Traverse 2m left past the roofs to a vertical crack.
2. 10m 5a Climb up and left, moving under a projecting block. Take the hand-traverse out left to the top.
