DWS traverse with french grades. Oh my favourite!

Yeah as we all know it's really E4 or E5, English 6a/6B ... oh and VIII+. What isn't clear about that?

Now updated showing recommended variations. The best way of linking the two halves together is to use the Barrel Traverse (BT) at F7c if you are very talented or downclimb Look Before You Leap (LBYL)(F6b S0). Now traverse around the rib (F7a) and through The Cauldron sea cave (F7a) to the newly installed rope bridge which deposits you onto Eight Ball and voila the second half of Rainbow Bridge.
The best finish follows the original as far as the hands off rest in the large niche/hole. Now make hard moves directly downward to join Gluteus Maximus which takes a safe low line to the finish on Terminal Zawn Ledges.
