βeta: Again, the guide-book writers enforce their style on the public... No jamming, and not really sustained - rather, a single pull on the upper slab that feels a little airy solo, but with the gear about the place probably makes a hard "Severe" as oppose to a "Hard Severe".

βeta: No need to jam anything anywhere if you dont want to. There are plenty of hand holds outside/on the edge of the crack. I found this one of the easiest HS I have done, albeit with a tricky move half-way (if like me you miss a bucket of a foothold). Never sustained either...
