18m. Great climbing with a very thin but well protected crux to finish. This is the line to the left of the prominent square pocket in the slanting break.

Crux is harder for the short, but it is possible to lace the crack with at least 4 nuts!

Lower/mid part fairly run out and top move well hard (possibly 6A?) - overall worth E2. nice route though

Good, characterful, route combining distinct sections of bold and hard climbing. Definitely E2 5c for the combination of the long run-out in the middle and the vicious finish which is at least as hard as anything on Kitten Claws or The Hypocrite.

Agree totally with fiend. The middle section is run out on very sketchy and thin gear. A definite E2. Brilliant route though.
