Description
I'm mainly posting this route to advise people to avoid it, the climbing wasn't great, and it the anchor in the Epeldi book isn't there anymore! It starts in a chimney, climbs a finger crack and goes up and around a wide flaring roof. I used the chains to the right on Weenie Roast but it wasn't exactly ideal.
Location
Go about 30ft right of the Number Nine. Find a chimney perched up on some blocks. That's the start. Avoid it because there's no anchor!
