The obvious right to left trending overlap gives an amazing line. Follow the line all the way to a lower-off at its very end.

'ard. got through the "crux" bulge to the big holds ok, then fell off the traverse left due to a biiiig pump. COuldnt Livesy have chipped a foothold there?! Peg at traverse in good nick. 1st peg at top of initial corner is f****d, but easily backed up by good small wire. Beware loose rock n intiial corner, i pulled off a biiiig block that looked solid!

awesome line,the best trad route at kilnsey? clean enough, get on it
