From DBA at bottom of Charybdis (4m above waterline near edge of Zawn), move left and up on gear and slung bollards (thin rack to # 2 or 3, slings), then past three bolts (can join these from /charybdis) to DBA on large ledge.

Steeply up past roof on great rock (crux), then weave up face on jugs above to shared top anchor with Charybdis. Small to Medium gear can be nice to supplement the bolts. P3: follow Charybdis P3 past 1 b to DBA at gear ledge.
