12m. The left-hand arete of the tower has a hard, reachy and poorly protected start until it joins the Original.

A fun, enjoyable route but reachy at the start!!

shouldn't that read 'unprotected start'!? There ain't no gear! :>(

Hard start and highball moves before gear. Glad I was seconding. Wasn't great conditions but felt very hard at the given grade.
