Padraic took over when I bottled out of the move. I had been expecting a slightly easier route along the lines of Cornered Rats. Its a one move wonder but I did think it was a hard move. I'd be more sceptical of the E2 on it than the 5c

An excellent route, with two good resting places on the ledges between the hard bit, passing the left facing corner. I though 5b? But 5c does the ego good!
