βeta: Took a whipper on this yesterday, gear held and all’s well that ends well. Definitely sandbagged, would probably just avoid this and climb something else | βeta? | |

βeta: Came off this yesterday. Part of the flake broke off early in the route (just above the ledge), took a fall but my gear held. Higher up, realised that the rock quality was deteriorating and so decided to bail. The gear I was lowering from gave out, I hit the ledge below and shattered my foot. Agree with the comments below - this is one to avoid. | βeta? | |

βeta: One to skip. Not particularly hard, just shit. Watch out for loose gritty ledges near the top. | βeta? | |

βeta: I've not climbed this but friend came of it a few days ago. He tried to back off from the gritty dirty ledge/hand holds and his feet slipped, gear popped and after several backward rolls he landed under drizzle. Very luck to just have a broken bone in his foot. Maybe it's tough for the grade but it definitely needs a good clean but it's tried | βeta? | |
