βeta: This is not bold as the RockFax book suggests. Just the first 4m. Plenty of good gear above this. Hexes good but not essential. Tree belay at top so a couple of slings good to protect the bark.

βeta: A hard start as I remember, but the upper section has sufficent hand-holds and gear placement.
