One of the best routes in the area, sustained on good rock.

Return to corner and follow it as it. slants left till its junction with the roof (6) (original ascent went left on wall with pendulum move). Exit right on jugs thru overhand (1m out, 7), with good protection. Continue above roof 5m(5) to good stance. Climb up corner right (10m, V+) to easy traverse left (10m, 2), back to main crack system and up this (30m, VI-) to stance.
