βeta: Nice problem - took me a while to work out the first few moves but once I got the sequence it was fairly easy. I don't think its that bad for the short - I'm about 5'6 and had no trouble with reach - the reach from the big slot to the next hold isn't too bad if you're in balance, I almost felt I could let go and reach up for the hold. | βeta? | |

βeta: At last! After doing the crux start about 5million times I finally got the bottle to do the top, which was a bit scary, good route | βeta? | |

βeta: ha HA! succeded at last 3 years trying finally managed it last monday. In sub zero conditions only took 3 goes and it felt piss when i did it, top move is quite scary so definitely VS. Just get you left foot on high on that vertical smear and push like hell. PS Reeve is a weak punter and can't do this or the RH arete of the tiny slab | βeta? | |

βeta: Very reachy! I was playing on this one with a short friend (5'5) and he couldn't reach the holds! A couple of reachy moves bring some larger holds to hand. | βeta? | |
