βeta: A really good route, should get 2 stars. Ran P1 & 2 together which works well. Peg is in place. P3 is also worth doing.

βeta: Could not find the second belay. Looking back we did the second pitch of Crossover as we followed the topo rather than the description. Ended up belaying half way up the scramble as limited placements (terrible rope drag!).
