description

Climb the face past 2RB's then traverse right along the ledge past 2RB's to the blunt arête, now up the chimney past RB. Step left across the void and up to anchors. 5RB's to 2RB anchor.

Be careful not to climb too high in the chimney or you'll find yourself above the anchor.

Start: Start in the middle of the small face on the left hand side of the buttress.
