Rockfax Description
Elegant climbing up the arete left of the big corner. The lower part is technical as far as a short vertical crack. Beefy moves on spaced holds lead up the short wall to a final shallow groove. © Rockfax

βeta: Have always avoided routes with reachy symbol, but glad I didn't avoid this one - very good, but why does it get a reachy symbol - ok for me at 5 foot 2 | βeta? | |

βeta: Took a nice fall on to a cam in the break which kept me about 5" off the deck after rope stretch due to faffing around with a big nut in the vertical crack and cranking my left hand on that slopey ledge for too long! Nailed it on the 2nd attempt though :) | βeta? | |

βeta: I found this hard. Maybe it's because I am short? The initial "crux" moves were really nice and not too hard. However I really struggled with the long reaches higher up. Excellent route though but very pumpy. | ||

βeta: Try to place the gear in the vertical crack quickly or you may find you haven't the strength to do the crux! | ||
