18m. A fine climb which would only be 7c if you didn't have to do the powerful start of That was the River. After the start follow the flakes above until a desperate sloper move gains the roof. Crossing this roof can also be problematic. Often dirty and usually needs to be clean and dry before it is climbable.

Bolts recently renewed up to the roof. The band of rock on the lip of the roof appears loose. Probably best to finish on the last bolt below the roof. This will not change grade if the last bolt is clipped from holds just under roof and not grabbed (do not understand the reference to crossing the roof being problematic - its not, just potentially loose).
