Start at the Black fixed rope at sea level. Traverse under the first pitch of "Big Fish" and all the way right to the hanging bush ledge. two bolts mark the start of the route. Recommend clipping in as ledge is questionable and start of first pitch is hard.
6 draws, 6 extendable draws & 2 60m ropes.
Great Rock, technical sequences and Outrageous exposure.
