Description
This route climbs more or less straight up to the hanging dihedral 20' right of Waltzing Wern's crux.
Start on the left side of a white, rectangular face. Traverse right and stem across to a big stalactite feature. Wander up and right, then back left and up to a roof. Move right, then clip a pin before the crux. Soon you'll reach some hand jams and easy climbing to the top.
The gear is ok but a little tricky.
