Route Description:

Go to the lowest point in the crag, right of the grassy gully, (about 15m right of'Basecamp Corner'). Climb the steep vertical crack, with some heather in it, up to the overlap. Move right around overlap on to the ramp, across easier ground to the left, and up the steep corner to finish on top of slabs.

Mayfly - Valli on the first moves of this lovely route on Middle Easter Crag, Eglish.

Nice route, worth at least a star, with the crux at the start. If it had been slightly more sustained in the middle, it would be worth at least two stars, as the finish is very nice too!
