Natural pro requiredSingle rack #0.2-3, 14 Draws.
The route climbs the first pitch and a half of an old project from Kester brown and Danny Wood. (Route/ project 10)
It then follows a nice line of steep face and seam climbing that leads to a classic darrans slab.
The route was established ground up on mixed protection over two days.
Could be climbed at 22/A2(needs a double rack and bat hook)
Decent:
Rap the route, possible with a single 70m rope. Crux pitch requires back clipping due to steepness.
