An excellent route that is well worth seeking out. Brave the rubbish to get to the base of the route – there is usually a path. Start to the right of the nose and climb the fingery lower wall just right of the arête and arrange protection at the overlap. Grovel, or swing leftwards, depending upon how resourceful you are, to gain a standing position above the overlap. Finish easily up the slab.

A great route embodying a certain esoteric charisma; it follows the large open corner six metres to the right of the nose.

Gain the shelf in the wall on the right, and climb twin cracks to a niche. Finish easily.

The sharp arête passing a peg. Good climbing.
