βeta: PS - Anyone wanting to try Orpheus Wall, give this a go first. It's a slighly simpler version of something similar with the same gear.

βeta: Gear and climbing in the same vain as MGB and Orpheus Wall. Harder move than MGB, though, involving exactly what it looks like it should be from the ground - don't be tempted out left, as it'll make it harder!
