This is a route ascending a fun, crack on the S side of the West face of this crag. The name is derived from the Rossiter & Gillett guides. The climb faces West, so it is cool in the mornings. The climbing is wide hands with a bit of a face climbing crux. It seemed best to be left side in. Tape was helpful for non-Peter Croft-like crack climbers. The mellow start was nice compared with the starts for

To descend, move to the next slot North and downclimb into a chimney.

Location

It is the right-most of the obvious cracks between the fins at Fin City.

Protection

Hands to fist sized cams are useful. #1-#4 Camalots, doubles, perhaps.
