  1. 5b, 10m. Quickly gain the thin hanging crack with difficulty and follow it to ledges and a belay.

  2. 4c, 15m. The wall on the left is climbed via a rounded mantelshelf. The pitch can be improved by hand-traversing the rounded pod that runs out towards the arete just below the to

Finger traverse left from the with increasing difficulty (V5 to here) and pull into the leaning corner with great difficulty. Once established, finish easily.

Gain the lip of the roof from the diagonal crack on the right then foot traverse left to a shallow groove. Climb the left-hand side of this to finish. Thought by some to be 6b.

A direct start to A Fist Full of Crystals, avoiding the use of the right-hand side slab.

The right-slanting crack leads awkwardly to an easy slab. Well-protected but a thrash and often choked with pine needles.
