βeta: I reclimbed this today 27 years after the first ascent - the third pitch should climb straight up easy ground, the the 4th goes down and left then up a slab with a wall to the left with a lay-back like crack before you pop over a bulge to easy ground for the last scramble pitch to the top. On the first ascent it was raining when we climbed this pitch. After all these years stlll felt like a V diff with a harder bit. Davy

βeta: The start of pitch 4 up an 'undercut layback' is certainly not for the VDiff leader, the moves to gain the corner were trickier than most of the HVS and VS I did the same day. There's an alternate mantle to the right of the slab to avoid this.

βeta: Nice route, first multipitch with Beth. Move out of the third pitch didn't make sense for the grade (I didn't try, but it looked like a 5a move), maybe something has changed since it was first climbed, so I went to the right and mantle to join the route from that side. Very nice route nevertheless.

βeta: 110 meters of diff climbing, with two moves off a ledge with gear above your head that are touching 4c. How do you grade that!

βeta: The SMC, written description of pitch 4 of this route, and the photo topo of pyroclast (not pyroclast's written description), are one and the same, in my opinion. To further complicate things, the Garry Latter photo topo of pitch 4 doesn't match the route description, and finally, the photo topos of pyroclast are slightly different in SMC Highland South, and GL! Nevertheless a good route!
