Jem Cowen	18 Aug	Show βeta βeta: WARNING - I've climbed this several times over the past 20+ years and the large boulder (think 2m cube) at the top (in front of the stance) looks more precarious than ever. The boulder appears to be held in place by a tree which will probably yield in time. This issue isn't apparent from the ground, so please be aware. Said boulder is also above Emotional Dyslexia (incl the direct start), at least.	βeta?

Emile.swain	30 Sep, 2023	Show βeta βeta: Quite enjoyable, nice shelter belay area and solid anchors at the top. Not as greasy as the first climb of the day, one for all. Interesting crack, solid hand and foot holds, takes some thinking. Don’t use the peg to the left to avoid rope drag. End felt bold as didn’t have massive cams for the last part of the crack before the tree. Much more enjoyable than I expected.

Peppercorn	31 Aug, 2020	Show βeta βeta: Currently a hornets nest in the dead tree just below the belay. I traversed out left to an alternate tree belay to avoid.
