Route Description:

Looking from the sea level platform, this route finishes up the left-hand of the two corners. From the platform climb the short wall corner to beneath the overhang. Move left and then up steep rock on good holds to a ledge at the bottom of the corner. Climb this with steady nerve to the top.

Possibly even better than "Second Mate", but less well protected. I would give it ***
