Description Suggest change

Start by scampering up the featured slab aiming for the groove through the roof. Once you get into the steepness, power up and pull out your bag of tricks. Kneebar, chimney, stem and shoulder scum to the lip of the roof, Pull over the roof with considerable effort. Make your way up the vertical face trending left to jugs just left of the anchor. 

Author's note: This route is just so Lee (pardon me for referring to myself in the 3rd person) so I would personally say this is a route not to be missed. I gave it 3 stars rather than 7 (haha) out of respect for the average climber's level of interest in the kind of wizardry. 

Location Suggest change

On the right end of The Ruin there is an obvious roof. This route climbs right out the middle of the roof through a groove then on up the face above. 

Protection Suggest change
