Stiff moves through to the overhanging arête, to a barn doory and smeary top! Class

The line isn’t very clear but it’s not 7C. Climbing the right hand side of the arête using only holds on the arête is a bit more condition dependant than the method I ended up using but not any harder.

As per description it’s very soft, but starting to the right under the crack and eliminating the base holds of the crack I would say is a 7C.
