βeta: If taken reasonably direct then it’s probably VS 4b. I’m sure there’s a severe route if you’re prepared to search for it.

βeta: NOT SAFE AT SEVERE!!! there is very little gear on the whole route, and the crux is run out 4a/4b. Nice climbing up to the top-out though, which is a vegetated earth slope covered in choss and broken glass.

βeta: Found the first pitch to be increasingly bold as I ascended, due to lack of gear where I wanted it, and the resultant rope drag from zig-zagging about. Didn’t like the look of the final corner as a result, and belayed 5m short of the ledge on a dubious bush off to the left. The climb straight up from here was ok without rope drag, though still no gear.
