Another classic outing up the long ridge 40m right of South Gully. Often called Second Pinnacle Rib ("FPR" is scratched on the rock here too!).
1) 25m. Climb a groove just right of the rib that marks the right-hand side of the large grassy bay to belay on blocks.
2) 30m. Climb the steep rib above.
3) 30m. Climb rock steps to a large stance.
4) 30m. GUIDEBOOK INCORRECT. Continue up the rounded arete above, then traverse left to a stance above the Yellow Slab on the previous route.
5) 35m. As for the previous route.
6) 25m. As for the previous route.
