βeta: I agree with GrahamD: The Definitive Stanage guide sends you up the smooth wall just to the left of Route 2.. This is a good reachy 5a move. I then stepped back left (above the crack in the Rockfax description) and went straight up the bulges above. It felt a nice route with both technical and butch moves..

βeta: Rockfax gives a different description to the one in the definitive guide; there it goes directly up the wall between the two cracks. That way definately is 5a (and probably harder for the short). The top section over the bulges is great fun on surprisingly juggy holds.

βeta: i found this one really disapointing because the bottom is so easy (s 4a?). then it's a couple of moves on really positive holds (5a but well protected). wish i hadn't wasted my time.

βeta: Found this one right 'out there' (on the second!). Super commit to the top moves or problems will ensue!
