Description

Recently re-bolted/re-engineered by NB. The original line in the hanging corner was completely abandoned in prference for the thin and interesting face instead.

This is the leftmost of the corner routes. The best start is the moderate greenish colored left facing dihedral, although there are are a couple of possible starts. Once at the corner, clip a pin (mainly to protect the second), then climb past small nuts/rp and a small cam to a bolted face below corner overhang. Climb up and across the thin face to a crux move at the arete. Finish at a 2 bolt anchor -- same as for Crimson Corner.
