Description 

A wonderful, steep route - and by far the easiest route at The Hole. Some gymnastic roof climbing with a few desperate clips. Everything from buckets to slopers. Enjoy!

Location 

Starts in the easy corner on the right side of the cave, following two bolts on the face. Comes straight out the horizontal roof, turns the roof at the third fixed draw, and up a vertical face section. From here you clip another fixed draw (pink webbing at the time of posting) and traverse left on the lip of the second tier. One more clip and straight up to the chains.

Protection 

Take two draws for the first two clips (those located on the easy, vertical section). You may want to use a shoulder length sling on the second bolt for rope drag. The rest of the draws are fixed, albeit with webbing not chain.
