Description 

Climb both sides of the arete which is quite techy and challenging... The crux comes at mid height and can be done a few ways with slight variation in the grade... A good convenient warm up for the harder stuff to the left...

I have seen less experienced climbers get stumped at the crux numerous times do to the technical nature of the climbing... So if 5.10 is your limit just be ready to climb with your head...


Location 

The arete to the right of Holderness School Corner (5.8)...


Protection 

6 bolts to Quick Clips

Let me second the route description. Grade varies somewhat depending on which way you go at the crux. I'd say it varies between technical 9+ and pumpy 10a/b. Once you get there and fall off it's obvious. Heh!
