Classic, with some superb steep blobs and pockets linked by big moves. Polished and can feel a lot harder when the heat is on! © Rockfax

Chris(cface!)	30 May, 2007	Show βeta βeta: Great fun route - easier than it's steepness suggests! Also did it both ways, enjoyed it more without the rest, it just flows better!

Chad123	24 Oct, 2006	Show βeta βeta: Did it both ways, much, much easier straight up and the knee bar works best in the top cave not the bottom one. Good steep cranking.

Yak	31 May, 2005	Show βeta βeta: ya, easier if you are have the reach but i lunged for the hole and got it, i am short (5'5) with negative ape index of 6 inches, so a normal person should get it no problem. wish i tried skipping the cave and power straight up as suggested, might have been easier ... but great route no matter how you do it!	βeta?

John Alcock	27 Oct, 2003	Show βeta βeta: Quite easy if you climb it fast. If you're short don't try lunging right for the hole. Instead power straight up. Superb.	βeta?
