Description
Direct variation start to Jericho Wall. Gives you a pitch of C2 fun followed by two pitches of A2ish nailing for those that want a full value nailing experience on the wall. Cracks are still a bit dirty and exfoliation should be expected on pitch 1 and 3.
Can be used as a more direct rap route when descending from Jericho as well. Do not skip belays if doing this.
