βeta: Need to make sure you go diagonally up the central face scoop otherwise it is easier than the grade. Oh and the photo is of Rough Diamond, not this climb.

βeta: Definitely not a 5 when compared to just about any other 5. The top section seems to have lost a hold giving you a few more immense jugs to grab as you walk up.

βeta: The line on the topo doesn't follow the bolts of the F4 to the right of it. But common sense dictates that you use the first two bolts on the 4... otherwise it's a 40 ft solo to the first bolt on snappy rock... no thanks! Anyway, used the first 2 bolts and then broke left. Cracking easy route. Definitely not a 5 compared to Dream of white porsches/It's my life/slings shot etc etc - i'd say it was F4...

βeta: The topo doesn't show it sharing any of the bolts with Diamond Boulder (the central route)! Plus there were other people on that route anyway.

βeta: You must have been lost - it's got loads of bolts (7 of them), but the first two are shared witht he central route...

βeta: A nice route - very easy at the start with a lack of bolts (but none needed), then once hard-ish (well bolted) section in the middle.
