βeta: Might be controversial but the very top of the 6th pitch is naff. I thought it was best to finish the pitch on the abseil anchor after following the excellent hand crack which is not far from the top, but saves you an extra abseil to it. | βeta? | |

βeta: Amazing !!! We follow the chemney to the top and traverse on the flake, absolutely beautiful !! Crux pitch is definitely cruxy but easy to protect Clearly the best route at this level in the valley ! If you don't want to try the crux, the first 3 pitches clearly worth it (if you take the chemney of course) | ||

βeta: Finger crack was stuffed full of in-situ cams at the time! The abseil off was far from obvious, luckily a local climber showed us where it started. | βeta? | |
