βeta: Almost pulled off the flake at first ledge, it’s fine on the right with a downward pull but don’t pull out or put cams behind it or you might have it off and it’s sizeable. Route is still worth doing good fun with a bit of arête, crack and face climbing!

βeta: I can say with confidence that at "5b" this is the biggest technical sandbag Ive come across. Not bold or anything (at least with a mat) but Id say the lower wall is at least 5c and probably 6a (I couldnt do it and had to go up the right-hand crack); the upper crack is also solid 5b I reckon. And the top wall isnt particularly easy either.
