The easiest of the three E1's, but no push-over. The route can be split in two at the girdle ledge, but is best enjoyed as one of the finest long pitches in Wales.
45m. Climb steeply to reach a wide crack. Follow this to reach a good resting ledge at 18 metres. Climb direct to the girdle ledge (possible belay) then step right and follow the crack to easier climbing on the arete.
