βeta: Needs a better description I think - using the topos in the photos, climbed under/to left of the sloping chert band (generally using the chert for right hand/foot and the wall to the left for the left hand/foot with mostly left-handed clipping) and continued on line to the obvious belay; then retreated slightly and did the branch right over the chert onto the small slab then headwall and subsequent top slab and walk-off, the headwall was the hardest couple of moves. Which doesn't fit with the grades - or (perhaps more likely) I was off line.

βeta: Communication is tricky when on belay as you cannot see each other.
