Rockfax Description
A route of contrasts and the start is very hard for the short. Swing out right to jugs and a ledge on the front face. Move up awkwardly then step left on to the narrow side face and climb this delicately by lovely moves in great positions. © Rockfax

βeta: First two thirds great, top third disgustingly green and desperate, not sure if I strayed into the E2 to the left. The top shelve was dripping in green slime, not pleasant. | βeta? | |
