10m. The elegant slab on the left edge of the buttress is gained steeply and climbed precariously. As good and as unprotected as it appears from below.

A commiting and excellent line - check out the pic of Rich Pickford soloing it in my user profile

A real soft touch at E4

Small wires have not protected this route for some considerable time now and it's a long fall from the last precarious hard move. The line shown in WG should depict it finishing further right.

I agree, a flake has obviously broken off where the crucial placement was leaving it effectively unprotected. The flake below feels a bit hollow, if you did manage to get something in I think it would just pull the flake off. I don't think it is a soft touch without the gear.
