βeta: Rusted maillon in bolt before the roof is now freely moving at least, so you can clip your draw in under it to avoid any snapping/bending risk

βeta: The roof can be a bit crumbly. Broke off a sizeable chunk and went flying.

βeta: Slightly trying start, moves into a very nice set of moves until the roof, boulder-lovers will enjoy the motion left and then a big haul to the last bolt will leave your hands bloodied (if you go for a fist-jam) but it's well worth it for the extra flair. An underrated exciting little number.

βeta: I lobbed off this route last Saturday when a substantial chunk of the crack above the roof came off in my hand and subsequently hit my belayer. Having lowered to check she was ok, I re-climbed the route to confirm the grade and quality remain unchanged.

βeta: Yet another one of those choss filled gullies that is just crying out to kill you! Personally I'd avoid this one!!
