βeta: doubled up pitches, no problem with 60m rope. Skipped out some bolts to save on draws. | ||

βeta: Pitch 5 (3c) trends right and belay is about 10m directly below the big tree. The line of bolts heading left of the tree is a similar grade but leads to an anchor/chain with a big X scratched into the rock and no obvious bolts above…! | ||

βeta: Amazing 12 pitch route with panoramic views. The 5c pitches were the most enjoyable near the top. Got a bit off line on the way up to the big tree so make sure to keep on the right line of bolts up the slab as you approach it! Take trainers for the walk down afterwards. | ||

βeta: Be careful not to follow the bolts up to the big tree like the 2 parties in front did. Instead look for the bolts crossing right wards well below the large tree | ||
