Description
This climb offers some of the best situations on the crag.
1. Climb up the prominent crack until possible to move into a groove which is followed for a short distance until the ledge and belay.
2. Move right to a stance on the pinnacle and then below a wide crack. Move up into the crack and follow it to the stance on Kipling Groove.
3. Climb up then traverse to a small overhung stance. Continue up a shallow crack then move around the arete, which is followed up until possible to move left. When possible move right onto the wall and then finish directly up.
