βeta: Baby chicken rock pulled off on the lower section before the 2nd bolt by Penny (muscles!!!). Otherwise a wonderful climb...Last move a bit nasty up onto (and then off) of a less pleasant ledge than it seems.

βeta: Stunning. One of the steepest routes for the grade I've ever done.. and there's such a delicate finish. Endless English 5a, with a 5c top. Clipping the belay is a bitch if you're short. I used a Frog.

βeta: Nice route - good steep section at the bottom. Top moves just edge this into 6b?

βeta: Watch out for poor rock on this route. My partner pulled off a seemingly solid bit that was about 4-5 inches thick and about the size of a large micro-wave. She was lucky it was the end of the day and had decided just to second this one rather than lead it. The scar is just below the forth bolt though it won't have effected the grade.

βeta: I agree - 6a max...till the top. I found it impossible to clip the lower-off and I tried hard!! But then I'm a short arse (5"2). Loose stuff quite scary too - using small crimps to avoid big wobbling blocks! Apart from that great...!!
