βeta: Route goes directly past the 2 bolts side by side for the upper crux. This is where a crimp came off the top crux of the original route and where a hard new sequence was found involving a big slap off a small left hand undercut up to a flattie by the peg in the break (hence the upgrade from 8a+ to 8b). The loop out left to the big glued jug is off route, this is part of an old E6 called Double Indemnity. | ||
