Description
This has been mentioned as a direct start for Bombardment and as a more fitting start to Ventilator. Really it's short but it's kind of its own route, link it up how you choose. Pretty good but a little short.
Start as for Bombardment/Pleasant Street, but rather than going hard right to the Pleasent St slab go straight up past three obvious bolts on a steep fairly blank slab. I called it 10a cause it's like the climbing on Ventalator and The Book which seem to be standards in the grade for Cathedral. Turns out it's 5.9 in the new book, sounds fine to me.
