Character
A great steep climb on compact rock, almost all bolted, up the south-west pillar. Seven pitches to a tough summit scramble. The most repeated hard route on the tower and the one that has seen the most anchor upgrading.
Gear
60 m ropes (50 m should be OK). Max 10 bolts per pitch. Small cams 0.2–2; nothing needed above P3 until the last pitch.
