βeta: Start up Mur y Niwl to the grassy ledge, shuffle up and left to small wires (number 1/2) on Aura, then commit to the crux directly up the rib above, to the right of Aura. Poor 0.3 cam. Low in the grade at E3 5c - just a couple of pulls to good holds but feels bold. Follow the obvious groove up and right, where interest is maintained - E1 5a/b for that section. I linked P1 and P2, following the groove / line of weakness all the way to the belay ledge at the top of P2, seemed logical.
