Description

Head up the left arête or go straight up the face using the crack/seam for right hand and left arête for left hand. Straight up the face might be a bit harder than 5.9.

Note, this route isn't in the Marty's map of the area. It is two routes right of #23 Christmas Chocolate and on the left arete just left of #24 Casting Shadows. God Save The Ta Tas (another newer route) is the route left of this.

It's cleaning up more, but still a good idea to watch out for loose holds here and there.
