Description:

Climb the slab below the twin cracks. Climb the twin cracks (polished) and then take a rising traverse to the left. At the arete continue until you reach the quartz band, then step left into a shallow fault line and climb this to the top.

Descent Options:

Follow the arrows up the rocks to the left and then descend into the gully and walk down. If you are a low grade climber you may need to keep the rope on until you reach the gully bed.

5 out of 5 stars solo

The rock was dry, even the mid-section below the quartz. the sun shining, and this route is perfect for a solo. Was there early, before others, so that I didn't spoil their enjoyment.

4 out of 5 stars led

A nice climb but the twin cracks are getting very polished. The area just below the quartz is usually wet so take care
