Rockfax Description
Start below the centre of the face and climb until sloping holds lead diagonally right towards the arete. After a couple of moves up, traverse back left to join The Kirkus Original. Easy but unprotected and a long way above a poor landing; care required. © Rockfax

βeta: STill think this is V Diff. Soloed it soon after starting climbing & found it ok (take a deep breath at the crux), it's in balance & moving onto a good ledge. | βeta? | |

βeta: HS is right for this - no gear until it's all over! VDiff is totally wrong. Your average VDiff leader would get a nasty fright on this, as it is a solo and the landing is awful. Moves are 4a. | βeta? | |

βeta: This is a fine climb. but I have to seriously dispute the grading, granted it is unprotected but no harder than severe, V Diff was fine in my opinion, and I only lead VS on a good day so this isn't the opinion of some E5 leader, if you lead severe and like slabby things this is a good route | βeta? | |
