This small upper tier is above the Tree Route on the main cliff. There is access to a vegetated ledge on the left side of The Yak Pasture from the cliff top above Chinese Whispers. The holds have a curious rounded but positive quality which makes the crag quite unusual to climb on.

Start two metres right and pull through the small triangular overhang; then carefully on rounded holds up the thin crack, utilising creative cam placement opportunities as they arise. Climb the steepening crack through the bulge (crux) to an easy finish.
