Interesting, well protected - do it. Starting from off the top of the ferny rock at the front RH corner of the Stronghold (the ferns have been worn off now), rock over onto the sloping ledge and traverse left awkwardly, clipping two bolts before swinging out onto the solid slab above. Angle rightwards to a ring right on the apex of the block.

'After observing many climbers over the years reluctantly committing to the initial moves off the ferny boulder to the first bolt (or deciding to back off due to the nasty fall potential), it was decided that a bolt be placed low down to protect the said moves. Increased traffic should now keep the upper slab free of moss!'-Dunedin Climbing Facebook page
