Rockfax Description
7m. Straight up the wall with a tricky move using a letter-box hold to get past the blankest section. Probably only VS if you actually lead it. © Rockfax

βeta: Agree with below- it's 5a+ from the minute you step off the ground and thin moves in places above decent clusters of gear (I wouldn't trust a single cam in those sandy flared breaks). Never a vs but a lovely hvs, which would suit those with bouldering prowess.

βeta: HVS 5a; 5b for the short. Not VS, even if you lead it: that's just BS. Good with an exciting move that is protected if you have an attentive enough belayer.

βeta: One of your reachy symbols would suit this climb well.
