This fun crack is to the right of the first pitch of "After Six". Jam up nice, smooth hands and fingers to where a step right can be made. Continue up to a ledge. From here one can either continue climbing up and joining "After Six", or descend.
With a 70m rope you can rap off the tree at the top of the first pitch of after 7 . It is a rope stretcher. If you swing right into after six, you can reach a good ledge about six feet off the ground , then a short and easy downclimb...

Great route and a more aesthetic start to After Six. The crux is no issue but the crack climbing is real committing.
Try the alternate final pitch with the left-leaning left-facing corner... not as much exposure on the way up but a nice sustained 5.8 with a committing but rewarding roof mantle at the end.

Great pitch as a start to After 6 or on its own. Walk-off requires some tricky smearing.
