βeta: I've done the route twice, and the first time I led p4. I am not sure I agree with Webster's feedback: I didn't find the pitch dangerously run out or unsafe but rather exhilirating and slightly "out there". The style of climbing contrasts beautifully with the slab and then the corner, below. | βeta? | |

βeta: pitch 4 (the second 5c pitch) is dangerously runout and blind. you often cant see the next bolt so have to commit to some quite hard climbing well above the last bolt, not knowing if you are still going the right way (which is unusual for a sport route)... it needs two more bolts to make it safe! | βeta? | |
