βeta: Nice 6a+ after bolt 3, but this route has a small foothold that is now very polished where you clip bolt 2, in the middle of the tricky section (at least 6b, IMO); my (very old) boots slipped off this unexpectedly, so beware. If this happened whilst trying to clip the bolt, you could easily ground fall. Worth thinking about clip-sticking bolt 2. | βeta? | |

βeta: Obvious why this only gets one star - whilst there is good climbing and some sections of nice rock, there's too much loose stuff nearby and sometimes on route. Proper F6b if you stay on the line. | βeta? | |

βeta: Careful with the rock - my partner pulled a half-metre long block off this, which clattered him on the way down. Fortunately only minor injuries! | βeta? | |
