Description 

Dark Special is yet another classic. A tricky start on the arete leads to spectacular crimping and edging through the arete. This is a route not to miss.


Location 

This is the odvious arete just to the right of Light Special.


Protection 

There are four bolts with a rap anchor at the top.

Between 1st and 2nd bolt is the most relevant run-out. Some bolts were spinning.
