150m. The obvious chimney in the centre of the crag. The chimney is poorly defined at first and it is possible to escape on the left. The line steepens and difficult moves over chockstones allow entry to the better defined upper chimney. The upper chimney doesn't hold much ice and can be quite entertaining.
