Description 

This climbs up and over one of the more attractive features on the Millstone, a left-leaning, left facing corner reminiscent (at least to me) of similar features in Eldo. I think this is the among the top 3-4 routes on the crag and a good precursor to getting on the more difficult lines of Stone Ground, Moon Walk, and the Maize. In the narrative for this route in their guide, the Ruckmans comment, “Some sort of vindication?” Uh, if the odd are the Ruckmans, I’d say yes, and then some.

Location 

The bolt line left of Stone Ground/The Maize, starting with two bolts left of an obvious, attractive left-leaning, left facing corner.

Protection 

Draws. Bolts on top rigged for lowering.
