βeta: Descriebd in the guidebook as 'follow cracks in the wall'? I climbed up to the break and looked at where the cracks went which was right towards the same awkward exit as Pencil Slim. The line in the guidebook goes directly up which I had a go at but it felt more like a 5b/5C crimpy highball bouldering problem and there weren't any cracks? If you traverse rightwards along the cracks and exit out at the top of line 4 then it makes sense at the grade. | βeta? | |
