Rockfax Description
A fine and tenuous finger-crack. Gain the base of the crack from the left via the big pocket or (harder) from below. Perfect wires protect thin layback moves at two-thirds height and the awkward finishing crack which is less bold than it used to be. © Rockfax
FA. Ed Drummond 1975.

βeta: The final half metre of the crack is green and slimey - worth brushing. | βeta? | |

βeta: Found a small Camalot to the left made the finishing moves a lot less bold - definitely advise taking it! | ||

βeta: The move to the pocket is a bit scary but after that it’s just mint climbing and gear. | ||
