βeta: All comes down decent conditions and pulling really hard on the left hand, and slapping up with the right, with tenous feet. I did it twice in a row (first ascent and repeat), once when I panicked at the top and grabbed the ear (top of the flake) with my left hand, then repeated it again next go without the ear. Same grade by either sequence. There could even be a worthwhile sit start project into it! (On second thoughts maybe not!) Note the date of my ascent is very approx and could be out by a few years.
