βeta: The trees that were used to belay at the top of the climb have recently been cut down (March 2022). The stumps are still probably usable, for now. | βeta? | |

βeta: enjoyed when i finished but good so pumped and knackered. that slight overhang is so pumpy.think would have been better if i had climbed it better, good gear just tiring to place. i dont trust all the rock here too as a huge block moved while climbing under the viaduct, scary!! | βeta? | |
