The huge corner gives great climbing. Start by scrambling up to the base of the corner.
1) 4b, 15m. Climb the right wall then move left into the corner and climb it to a ledge belay.
2) 5b, 20m. Climb over the overhang then follow the corner until crack on the right lead to the next overlap. Pull through this with difficulty, then move up to a ledge (possibly belay if you are knackered). Step right and climb a groove to the top.
