Go rightwards and on to a small ramp from the belay anchor, climb the vertical past 5 staples to the topp of the arete on the left. Finish rightwards up the off vertical to the rap station.

Very crumbly rock. Took multiple good falls when holds fell off after I weighted them. Suggest your belayer stay out of the way and wear a helmet. Bring a sling to balance your anchor at the top. Very well bolted route though so worth doing.
