Description
A decent warm up in the area, though there are much better routes nearby (see Wonderful World) at a similar grade. Not the destination route for the Egg by any means, but certainly worthy of a climb while in the area.
The route begins with an out-of-character (though oddly common at The Egg) tough and overhanging start, that may be the crux of the climb. Climb up and past a tufa and into a corner, to a large ledge through a couple awkward moves. Wide stemming gets you to the anchors - careful of the large, loose block near the top. Its tempting to use, but not much more difficult to avoid it completely.
