βeta: 4m. Grassy ledges in the corner to get \"toes\" to the horizontal crack and finish up the arête. We also did \"Traverse des Doigts\", 4m. Slightly harder, basically the same line, but traversing lower using fingers in the crack line. And \"Orteil Arete\", 3m, the second arête in direct to the same finish. Could the crack up the next wall be Salathe, this would make the next (3rd) arête \"The Nose\"? This was the best route of the day by my reckoning and deserves a star. Note - We\'re not claiming FA, just trying to describe what we did. | βeta? | |
