βeta: If this stays at HVS it's possibly the worst case of grade-creep I've ever seen. It's very easy even for VS! Compare say this at HVS to Masochism at Ramshaw at HVS... hmmm!

βeta: Nice little route. Technically is a 5a, specially because it is unsuspectedly overhanging. However is very short and well protected, so just a VS.

βeta: i went up it thinking it was a vs 4c, think that would have been right even though it was hard work. similar to counts crack at stanage (vs 4c) but i would say not as hard as the file, higgar torr (vs 4c)

βeta: A classic struggle at the grade. The word sandbag was invented for this route (unless your good at jamming that is!)
