Description 

Immediately right of Agatha Christie there are a couple of ramps that head up to the left into a crack that angles up and right. This crack heads for the most notable feature on the route: the offwidth V at the top with chains on either side (head for the left chains). Start just below the uphill ramp under a nose.


Protection 

This route protects fairly well. It has one bolt on it and chain anchors at the top. It is easily top-roped.

Be careful! While the offwidth at the top is unmistakeable, at the bottom it's pretty easy to head up the start of the 5.10 to the right of Hai Karate by mistake...Which is how I found myself 30 feet up trying to place a micronut from a sketchy stance and basically in fear for my life..Eventually I was able to traverse over to the correct line..

Stay left over most of climb-- to the right the lichen covered rock yields almost nothing, be careful in the begining as there is a potential to swing out into a tree limb, obvious mantle pretty early, traverse left after.
