Description:
On the Battlements, 2m right of Holy Grail, 16. Mostly balancy face climbing on small holds, protecting in the crack. Pro runs out for a while at about 3m but can be placed at the crux, a large protruding block with a sloping top. After the crux, scramble a few meters to the top. Anchors to the left.

Interesting
First 19, not pretty but got there, found the mid part with the small crack the hardest but blame my worn shoes :P, ironically found the crux not bad and made it clean (the crux that is)

Spanked! ......again.
At least time I made it all the way to the top, but with alot of hanging along the way.
Very nice route, with quite a bite.
A #1 lowe ball pretty much eliminates the potential runout up to the crux.

Fantastic climb. The holds are way more juggy than you think, and it's interesting right to the top.
