βeta: I have no idea why this is given so many stars. It is awkward, with very poor and spaced protection in the first pitch. I will never to it again. Be prepared for a bold lead and potential for blocks to come off.

βeta: Big ol’ battle that was! Everything is there but it’s a steep one with some bad holds. I wouldn’t argue if someone said it was HVS 5a but maybe it’s cos I forgot to clip my toe nails that day
