Rockfax Description
A direct line right of Helicon that sees few ascents. Very bold. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
A bold route up the wall between Helicon and Rippemoff. Start as for Rippemoff but pull out right almost straight away onto a flake system. Follow this to the break (of Atropos) and reasonable gear. Pull though the bulge above on a creaking flake to the Pendulum break. Follow the thin crack above to crux moves at a thin flake before finishing direct.
Not known to have had many if any repeats and the finish requires cleaning before an ascent.

βeta: Pulled off a large flake above the first overlap, which isn’t actually used on the route, but would have probably killed the belayer if it had come off - hence is better off than on! | βeta? | |
