Description
Nice 5.9 line, in between the two small roofs at the bottom of Rupley Tower D, all the way to the top.
Because of a broken hold, there is one hard move, which by the opinion of the guide-book makes it a 5.11, but in my opinion the move is not that hard.

Location
To the left of the normal route (R4) on the east-face, between two small roofs. Belaying is possible in a small clearing in the bushes.
Two rappels (60m) are needed to get down. The best way to go is to rappel to the ledge just below the summit. Between the two blocks there is an anchor with a ring for the second rappel.
