Rockfax Description
The wall right of Skylight still feels a bit spicy in parts, though less so than when it was E5 6a. Pull over the bulge right of Skylight to a rest, then continue directly up the wall on well-spaced pockets for about 10m. Trend right to a rib and continue more easily to a lower-off. © Rockfax
