βeta: More 1* than BGB. Go direct on the nose using almost none of BGB for a hard 6b+ / 6c. Topo shows the line but guide describes merging left earlier. At fistjam, use it as left undercut, right foot up high right, left higher then change it to Gaston in same place, right hand to bulge nosey, pull hard on left to catch with right little sandy undercut in orange sandy scoops roof, left hand up somewhere?, right up to top of borehole out right, rockoverish left into the last hold of BGB with left, the crack by lower off, as undercut, on BGB. Nice, Perhaps 1.5 to 2* ;) 15 april19.
