Description 

An awkward 5.10 crux on top of a very moderate approach cruse... not a bad route but not super memorable... The start is often wet...

Start up just right of and almost in the wet chimney following bolts out on to the face and up to the imposing roof feature... This part involves lots of route finding mixed with technical foot work and some power... So come ready with your full bag of tricks... Stay right as you come over the roof then make somewhat scary yet safe moves left to a bolt and a good stance... A few more moves lead to a great jug to mantel on to a comfortable ledge where you can clip the chains...


Location 

On the far right side of the cliff... The first route right of the big nasty wet chimney...


Protection 

10 bolts to anchors... you may need a 60m rope its a pretty long route...
