Beth Shilliday above the crux.


Description 

Start as per Flawless Fissure then step right and climb a slanting crack up and right.

Perhaps not quite as good as Flawless Fissure but a fun climb and worth doing if at the crag.

Better than Flawless Fissure in my opinion. 1.5 stars out of 3.

After placing good piece just before easing round the corner - it seems compelling to march up the crack to a good rest spot and put your next piece in, but you may want to linger and put a piece in lower, just for the second so he/she doesn't have to climb a blank face if they come off the crux.

Now I know why it's called Friend Eater, got 2 cams stuck and needed finesse for the first and brute force for the second, thnaks Mike Newheart.

Watch out for the spicy step around move in the beginning.
