βeta: Beware of loose / chossy rock at the first corner / gully. My seemingly solid foothold broke off when weighted, and I didn't have any gear in. Took a bit of a fall to belly slide down the grassy slope toward the cliff edge below, but thankfully my trusty belayer had placed a nut at his belay point and saved the day. Advise placing gear early and backing up the belay! | βeta? | |
