βeta: I did the route yesterday and found it clear of debris. The top pitch along the crest where the rock fall occurred is still very loose though. I wouldn't want to be on the lower slab with someone above. Luckily I had the crag to myself. Probably best done out of season on a weekday for now. | βeta? | |

βeta: Didn’t know there had been a rock fall. First two pitches covered in small rocks - pretty mediocre climbing. P3 was great on good rock. Last pitch I climbed just left of rock scar - seemed solid with gear placements - maybe vdiff not diff but I’m probably not that well placed to distinguish between these grades! | βeta? | |

βeta: Due to several patches of rock fall, a lot of loose rock, giving it all a very Alpine feel. The last pitch has fallen apart and is a rickety choss-fest. Still climbable, but only enjoyable for those used to Alpine choss climbing. It is a good training for choss climbing; for those who wish to do so: 1) wear a helmet; 2) avoid other climbers; 3) keep your rope out of the loose rock by anchoring high up; 4) treat every hold as suspect - some broke off; 5) climb on tip toes. 6) possibly avoid the very last pitch on the ridge by a path on the left (???). Enjoy (grin). | ||

βeta: Given the easy grade, the debris that covers the majority of the climb does make things a little more testing. The middle section of the summit ridge is in terrible condition. A massive collection of loose rocks and boulders just waiting to go. I\'ve read this is the result of a recent lightening strike. This section can and should be avoided by heading left when on approach. Its a stunning crag and location but the potential for misadventure is significant. | βeta? | |

βeta: Great care should be taken (and on outside edge) after recent rockfall/lightning strike(?) has covered the route from bottom to top in loose rock and choss. Knocking anything off has the potential to cause serious harm, especially from higher up on the route. P3 with the chimney is the cleanest | βeta? | |

βeta: Great care should be taken on all routes here as there's lots of small loose rocks. A rock came off around 60m up which landed only 3m to the left of a climber at the base - at the time she wasn't wearing a helmet! | βeta? | |
