18m. A fine climb but the desperate crux which stops most attempts. Start by the tree stumps and climb up the easy stuff until things blank out. You wonÕt be surprised to discover that the original attempt on this line had a hold bolted on here. Revelling in your ethical supremacy, crank past this and keep going. Cross the final roof to reach the lower-off.
FA. Mark Pretty, Robin Barker 1991. Nigel Slater climbed the route as The Tea Monster in 1990. His dubious bolted-on flake had a short life.

Whatever grade this route is, I think 8A, it is the best of its grade in the Peak

the only thing I didn't find on this route was a desperate crux... it is amazing climbing... big holds, fun moves, just keep going!
