βeta: Super under-rated classic. Enjoyable often sustained scrambling with only a few short sections of technical difficulty. Still, worth roping up for.. As with other comments, the key is trying to stay with the crest, even where it is pretty exposed. The first gendarme is passed pretty quickly (1 hour ish), but is just goes on and on from there. Taxing…The final abseil causes some difficulty but try and take it as directly as possible otherwise the rope snags. The descent, as others have also noted, is not pleasant, and perhaps brutal if taken at a canter. | ||

βeta: The final \'easy\' 100m or so section of the ridge is incredibly unstable and is an accident waiting to happen. the crest itself feels mostly solid, but if you look closely there is very little holding it in place! | βeta? | |
