Description
The guides get a bit confusing on which is which in this area, so I'm taking a guess. Based on the length this one should continue on and up to the right linking with a route called Proper Training is Essential (5.11+), making for a rope stretching pitch at solid 5.12.
The lower section starts off on the left of two broken crack systems, climbing up crimps and sidepulls and then pulling over a bulge into a large almost completely blank face. Welcome to cruxville. It's only a few moves, but it's super thin and reachy. After that you can traverse right to the Angels and Dæmons anchor, or continue up another 15 meters or so.
