Graeme Hammond 4 Mar Show βeta
βeta: Dug out the ledge after the difficulties and assorted holds/cracks somewhat but could still do with more work & trimmed the tree (surprised none of this was done prior to FA) and with MTs hard work digging out the wall above it is currently just possible to top out fully through the mud to make a full route experience. Just watched the FA vid and I climbed it with a very similar sequence; avoiding the corner of Born Again and the crack just left with one tiny pad. This is pretty eliminate as hand and/or gear in the left crack would be pretty logical given how close it is and is the natural line. This would likely weigh in at E2 5c, without either I felt it warranted 6a, IMO the given grade of E1 5b is pretty mean. However thought it was worth a star for the quality of the lower wall.
