βeta: This evening when leading the route the hanging inverted pinacle (at the start of the section moving left) moved significantly. It was only held in by a small stone and now rests at the the bottom of the route. There may be other bits of loose rock to come but we cleared up any obviously dangerous bits as best we could. The grade is unchanged as it's easy enough to reach across the gap left to other decent holds. | βeta? | |
