First ascent.

The climbing is now much harder since presumably the "bolt-choppers" unfortunately "removed" a small flake from inside a hold (possibly to hold their abseil rope in with a nut) thereby increasing the difficulty of the original F8a+ climbing. The "new nut placement" is useless on the lead as it hinders the ascent. [1]
