Brilliant, must be one of the best in Cheddar. Totally absorbing wall climbing on slopers, and doesn't let up till the chains. What awesome positioning on the upper arete, climbing basically straight above the road!

Start in a little ledge 1 metre high and then climb the footholdless first 3 metres to a hidden lifesaver pocket at your right. The route keep sustained but slightly easier then.
I would like to come back for the tick but I may need a rope protector to practice it as friction is pretty bad at the top.
