βeta: The blocks at the top don't sound too solid. The in-situ gear looks quite sketchy, though an abseil/descent is possible at the back without it.

βeta: Currently a Peregrine? I think nesting in the niche just left of the route. Saw some eggs, best to avoid silicon area for a bit. (Only south gully buttress listed as bird banned in RAD)

βeta: Solid VS 4c getting into the crack (and that's from someone who is pretty comfy with VS and cracks), strenuous to protect that bit. The start is the usual limestone grassy shit but the finish is pretty neat.

βeta: Surprisingly good, although not all that easy for the grade. Safe with careful gear placement (back up that peg!)
