Overview
Defined by a steeply overhanging base, a sloping traverse across the middle and a pocketed upper wall this face has a lot of good problems and plenty of potential. Often the trickiest part to straight-up problems is finding your foot placements on the overhanging lower section. Once you've learnt where these are a world of opportunities opens up (and the straight-up problems are a little less desperate).
