βeta: Three extra bolts added, now nine in total to make it a more enjoyable and safe route. Crux is direct through top overhang then left to lower off (about 6a maybe 6a+) which is the way done originally, trad at E1 5c. Although it wasn't me who retro-bolted it with very spaced bolts, to several climbers dismay, I have now rectified this by adding 3 extra bolts. | ||

βeta: Dangerous gap between 1st and 2nd bolt, not that much better bolted above, felt harder than 5C!! A poor route. | ||

βeta: Left hand finish at the top as straight through the overlap looked far too pumpy for the grade. Big loose block at the right of the crack section low down, the huge block you need to pull on for the direct finish doesn't look attached to anything either. | βeta? | |

βeta: If you follow the route as described in Gary's guide you'll end up on the left hand finish to Senter Home (6a+) - rather harder than 5+! | βeta? | |
