Description:

The left leanig corner/crack on the far right of the crag. Start below the tree, passing it on the left. Continue up the crack, climbing mostly on the face. Good protection for the most part, but a bit questionable right at the crux. Actually a good climb, and wouldn't suffer from a bit more traffic.

With a bit of gardening, even some of the dodgy placements might become good. All in all, quite a pleasant, albeit a bit adventurous, route.
