[Peak][Popular End][Mini Micro][~7A+]

Not new, but deserves to be on the radar. It's the little west-facing wall up and L from Flying Buttress. Ok with 1 pad, friendly with 2. Felt harder than the guidebook suggests, reachy, but if you can do the start you'll have a shot at the crux...

Nice one, I've always had this in mind but never end up taking a mat to the popular end.

Good little problem. Not sure it warrants 7a+ though, E1 6b in the guide isn't it?

Gets E2 6b, highball V5, but seemed fair bit harder than other V5s I've done, perhaps I missed a trick.

I did it years before I had a handle on bouldering grades to be honest, so your guess may be as good as mine.
