Rappelling from the chockstone at the top of the route. Need a 70m rope for this rappel. Note: chock stone loose as of Oct 2021. May want to walk off instead.

Absolutely Free- View from the start of the scramble.
On the approach to the base of the route. Go this way, left through the trees. Don't be suckered up and right too soon.
