22m. An extremely fine pitch. Tackle the blank-looking scoop and then up the steeper shallow corner to a flake. Continue to the overhang at the top and pull out right via a good layback flake before stepping back left to a lower-off. Low in the grade.

Now fully bolted, 7a+?. Best finished Direct, not rightwards as originally climbed. 3 stars.

Finishing rightwards is still good,and still 3 superb stars for the whole route.

Probably the best 7a+ in Yorkshire
Dave Musgrove - 03/Sep/03

Not sure it is the best 7a+ but certainly worth the walk
Paul Clarke - 08/Mar/04

Very easy for 7a+ with the RH finish, but well worth 3*. Finishing direct to the belay hard 7a+/7b? and probably a more logical conclusion to the route.
