The original hard route of the quarry. Though it is now easier since a block fell off it is ,nevertheless, still strenuous and sustained. The third buttress is characterized by a curious hole beneath a neb. Ascend a crack on the right of the arête, then traverse round and go up to the hole. Move right below the roof then finish up the crack directly above the arête.
