Description:
Towards the right end of the crag, just before the going through the scrub gets difficult, is a steep left facing dihedral. It's easy to mistake sustained climbing for a sandbagged route but good gear is there if you look. a little run out near the top but by then you are on good holds.

Ascent Note
It's surprising how a moderate to high pucker factor on a line can blind you gear placments. I ran this line out a bit thinking there was no pro in places and shit myself in the process. The sustained cimbing and the steepness of the line keep you on your toes! still not worth all the stars though.
