Description
Start up the low angle slab which gradually turns a bit steeper. About midway up the route step left across the large crack and continue up the steeper and highly featured wall. Very well protected climbing for the entire route. 70 meter rope strongly recommended - use caution on the descent, knot the free rope end or tie in as the belayer will need to pad up the lower low angle apron to allow a lowered climber to reach ground safe enough to untie. A 60m rope will force these maneuvers to an uncomfortable height.
