Description
A fun climb which owes its E grade mostly to a couple of easy but massive runouts.
p1. Start at the blunt rib at the top of the Exhibition Slab. Climb up and slightly right through a couple of small overlaps (pegs). Above the overlaps soar up the friendly but thought-provoking slab on good holds. Belay from 3 pegs and a nut at the right end of a steeper red wall.
p2. From the belay, make a couple of heady steps to the right and pull up over a bulge. Make a few more decisive moves to rock over the lip and gain the Easy Slab. Dash to the top on even more runout, but much easier ground.
