Start about 10 m right of the scramble. Climb a short steep section to a large, dirty ledge. Continue up to a cubbyhole beneath a large overhang. Use a foot rail to move out to the right under the roof and then pull through the roof at its right-hand end. Climb to the top on the right hand face. Starting at the yellow letters 'EA' painted on the rock is much harder than grade 14. A start more in keeping with this grade can be achieved by starting about 3 m to the left and then climbing up diagonally to the right to reach the ledge. Not a great line, but worth doing for the excellent moves below and around the roof.
