GDes	16 Jun, 2004	Show βeta βeta: bag of rubbish-its a polished horror show. really didnt enjoy it one bit. perhaps we'd been spoiled by the routes we did at malham the day before, but i really thought this wasnt much fun. do yourself a favour and drive down the road to some grit. or malham.

UKB Shark	23 Aug, 2002	Show βeta βeta: Now has a double bolt belay at the top of the groove underneath the roof which means u dont have to traverse right (unless u really want to) Also there is a good left hand variation finish from the lower belay at 7A+ although it is tempting to grab rather than clip the belay.	βeta?
