βeta: A peg blew under body weight on the in situ belay at the top of P1, just another reminder to back up in situ kit (there are plenty options nearby). Tried to dislodge blocks on second on p4 but wasn't able to get them off, but should still be approached cautiously.

βeta: A few dirty cracks but most of the holds are clean now. As mentioned, P4 needs some care to avoid loose stuff.

βeta: Beware the death blocks at the top of pitch 4! A little care is all that's needed.

βeta: All brushed 15 Aug 2020, but a bit more scrubbing would not go amiss. A SPID wire brush is ideal as you're cleaning cracks rather than face holds.

βeta: - Wire brush would be good for pitches 3 and 4. Wouldn't be too strenuous to brush some key areas/holds. - Care on pitch 4 for some loose rock/flakes in the wide section of the right hand crack, not too difficult to bypass, but could cause a nasty surprise.

βeta: Take a wire brush if you're going for this. It would really help on the upper pitches.
