Descent

Make a 25m abseil of the back, ring bolt, then follow, (some scrambling) a way marked with paint down a vague ridge line to the top of the gully that you passed nearby on the way up. Descend the gully of loose stones, (which starts with a fixed rope, sometimes,) to the foot of the climb.

• Gets the sun, (except the first pitch in the morning.)

• Very good rock
