Show βeta
βeta: This had the reputation of being one of the most unlikely Severe routes in Scotland. It had many failures in its early days (first climbed in the 50s). The grading is correct today and a tad bold on the first pitch. Even in dry conditions there are water trickles down the main slab. It looks bald from below but there is a link of holds through the trickles of water. Very small as you would expect but sufficient to reach the protection and easier safer climbing. | βeta? | |
