1) 5c, 24m. Climb the crack steeply through the bulges then follow the right-trending groove to the small but comfortable stance on Pothole Wall. Quite hard work at the grade.
2) 5b, 14m. Traverse left to pass the bulges then finish back rightwards up the hanging rib and into the shrubs - exposed.

Tough for E2, more like E3 (as in 'On Peak Rock'). Did ground up gardening, to reveal ok ish gear and holds! A great seldom done(?)adventurous trad route.

The line in NL pthot topo is wrong low down below the bulge - it should be further left. The description is accurate though.

Superb moves and the gear is OK if you can find it! Seemed in reasonable condition as of today.
