βeta: Sooooo, don't go bailing out into the corner near the top. I did, and pulled a fridge-sized block out pretty effortlessly. It would have killed my belayer twice had my aim been better, luckily at 35m up she had two full seconds to take cover. There's another, bigger block glued in to the left of the chains. Like I say, stay out of the corner... | βeta? | |

βeta: Removed the loose block at the start of the crux. Nat flashed it straight away and still thought top end 6c at most. Still OK climbing | βeta? | |

βeta: Dirty until the first ledge. Saw a rockfall onto this route August 2006, helmet for belayer might be a good idea. | βeta? | |
