Description
An arete climb by the master of aretes.
Start as for pitch 2 of Velvet Pedestal, but near the 2nd bolt, head up and left of the Velvet crack to a pod that becomes a short crack. At the end of the crack, do tricky underclinging to the arete, then start clipping bolts as you ascend the arete.
