The route finishes at the top of the crag but there are some bail biners lower down, it is not clear whether Felix went to the top of the crag on his ascent. [1]

Just to follow up on this, I spoke to Steve [McClure] at the cornice yesterday [13th July 2023] and he confirmed this finishes at the top of the crag, not the bolt with a couple of bail biners on about 3/4 of the way up. He couldn't recall whether it had it's own belay or shared one with the 8b to the left. As I understand it (from talking to Xav and where the chalk stops), Felix stopped at the bail biners so I think this may still be awaiting a second ascent ...
