βeta: Old school Vs and quite dirty on the top and bottom. Just be aware. I struggle to place protection in the chimney. Definitely, face the left hand side of the wall instead of my decision of facing the righ-hand side. I complicated my self with the lack of gear. Definitely it was a bold ascent.
