βeta: AVOID. despite my feed back last year, I somehow forgot and ended up on this again last night (crag was busy and needed a warm up). The obvious scared area is all still really loose. My turn to belay and my mate pulled off a large block which exploded into about 4 house brick sizes. Despite being stood off to one side, I got dragged into the fall zone and feel increadibly lucky to have avoided all the rock. Luckly nobody else, nor the roaming dog, or anyones coiled ropes where hit either. Needs de-gearing.

βeta: Just loose all the way. Probably the worst route on this wall and ought to have the bolts removed. Avoid!!

βeta: Where the route merges with the 6c, pulled on a head sized block which moved a couple of inches out. Removed the block on the way down.
