An interesting journey with some fine open climbing in its upper section. Start just left of an ash tree in the centre of the crag.

Follow ledges and a shattered groove to a large bivi ledge. Settle down for the night or move to the left edge of the ledge to a small pedestal below a short V-groove. Commit to the groove, step up rightwards to gain the steep wall above to finish left of the hawthorn at the top of the crag. A direct line from the right edge of the ledge has also been climbed at the same grade but can be slow to dry.
