Airy route that zigzags its way along the aerie past the large roofs. Exposure is the hallmark of this climb and almost all pitches contain bouldery cruxes. The easier sections are fairly run-out. This, combined with the exposure, creates an interesting mind game.

The first 3 pitches are excellent, after that the climbing remains good, but the awkwardness of the line is distracting. The line of the route is very illogical. Impressive bolting on lead though, with some interesting bits in between bolts. Great place overall. The crux pitch and the one below are awesome. Nice exposure. On the last pitch, we couldn't find the line across the big overhang, so we finished in the grass after the 4th bolt.
