Description 

Begin on low edges and work your way up to the high right hand edge (v4). Match hands on the edge and move through difficult pinching and a powerful gaston finishing with a long reach around the roof to a mono slot (v6). Set up on the pair of sloping edges just right of the slot and make a committing dead-point to a good three finger edge one more committing reach right and a high step take you to the top out jugs (v3). CLASSIC!

Protection 

Pads and a spotter to protect you from a large rock behind the landing if you plan on doing the final moves.
