Description

Climb the obvious, juggy-looking arete on the right of the steep prow. Sit start on a set of low crimps. Continue up the arete with fun moves between slopey jugs and sticky ledges, with heel hooks following you up, all the way to the highest point of the face. Do a feel-good mantel on jugs and good feet to finish.
