βeta: Don't listen to the below feedback, there is plenty of small kit available if you come prepared with the right gear for a bold slab route and actually look for it, I got 3 excellent and 4 adequate pieces after the break.

βeta: ".... But with just enough gear, at E3", is what the guidebook should say IMO. Found nothing worth placing between the mid height crack and the crux. With a light belayer you're definitely getting close to ground fall territory at that point...
