Description
This route is easy to find: a huge right-facing corner just to the left of the Larks. There are multiple overhangs on the route, and you need to move out away from the main crack in one or two places. It is a sustained, quality route. The belay ledges are quite small, making this a poor choice for a party of more than two people. On a day without snow and ice, this route can be done in four 70 m pitches with good belay ledges.
