7 * The Swinging Detective

A curious helical climb on the 'Tin Drum' pinnacle, west of the 'Cereals Buttress'. Start in a gully right and downhill from 'Bran Buds'. Climb the arete past a bolt to a crack. Swing left into this and up to another bolt. Move right onto the slab and up to the top and a weird ring bolt belay.

Technical and exciting. About 20 metres towards 'The Belfry', on a boulder at the same level as the 'Cereals Buttress', is a thin line to the left of a diagonal off-width. This is 'Gazelle Boy'.
