Description:

Newer sport climb on face/corner by the access gulley. Two large side-by-side oblong holes in the rock up high give the route its name. Can be started off the boulder to the left, but can also be started off the ground with the bouldery direct start through the small overhanging slot/chimney formed between the boulder and the main cliff face, onto the starting slab. Big and small cheese-grater holds, with a piece of gear or two to ease the fear of barn-dooring, take you to the crux; you'll know when you get there. Harder than it looks.
