Martgib	26 Sep, 2022	Show βeta βeta: Fun route, get on it. Solo for 6-7m to the first gear, but easy. First peg has rusted and lost mass, but can be backed up nearby. Second peg (high) seems solid. I feel the climbing is not quite 6B, and well protected where it's hard, therefore maybe E4 6B (soft), or even, dare I say it, E3/E4 6A. This isn't a sport route, as the guide suggests.
