Either

• Descend the  route

Note: The traditional routes in The Drakensberg are still graded using the "old" system. As with routes in The Alps this is regarded as conveying more information precisely because it is more vague than modern technical rock grades. The grade chart on the Grade Tab gives an indication of the technical equivalence.

Start: On the right side of this recess

1. 15m (E): Climb up 2 metres, then move diagonally left into the recess on the far left. Stem up the recess until able to move out right (peg). Belay on the flat ledge (peg can be found slightly back (2m) from the edge.
NOTE: This peg is also the abseil anchor.

Follow a vague path diagonally up and right, scramble up to a knife edge with a drop on the other side. Angle left along slabs, then up to a wide slope. A vague path takes you up through the grass bowl then left to the sky line.

2. 25m (C): Climb the short blunt arête then up the steep grass slopes which lead to the summit.
