βeta: Great route. The crux will take the unwary if they don’t find the jugs.

βeta: Thirded. At HS 4b move around the bulge left, then rock back right. The jams to move directly up are more like an easy VS with a single hard 4c move.

βeta: Looks nice and easy from the ground, the crux in the middle is tough, I came off a couple of times, awkward jam and very rounded holds, so hot my hands were cooking.

βeta: I'll second that... I was talked into soloing it and found it much harder than expected. The jams are awkward to place and very greasy after damp weather, not to mention the moves themselves being pretty hard for HS.
