βeta: Have climbed the first part of this route whilst working the direct finish, not climbed the crus from the break of this great route with a steady crux and good gear if you can find it!

βeta: A nice, fair route up one of the better lines on this wall. Could do with a direct finish!

βeta: The lower crack is mostly pleasant fingerlocking, while the top half is back to your typical C-y-B edging. Take two ropes to avoid rope drag on the traverse, and RPs to protect the crux.
