Description:

One of the classic lines at Froggat and perhaps the best 22 in the region. Starts off with a committing boulder move 20-21ish move while pulling on a very slopey pocket. Once passed the first move you then change styles into a slab with plently of slopers, once onto the ledge clip the 3rd bolt and then begin into the main crux. A totally committing sequence of moves that begins with a hard gaston and then lay back after lay back up a ridge of "honey comb" rock. Once at the bolt you are pretty much clipping with your body in a horizontal, narley stuff!!... after that work your way through many more laybacks, climbing lets off to 19-20 moves.
