βeta: Found it a really intricate route. Subtle variation in climbing style required. Head straight up. | βeta? | |

βeta: starting up the middle of the bottom slab makes it quite hard, most started a little right of where the guidebook suggested - looked much easier tho. | βeta? | |

βeta: Not too bad. Has enough gear and lacks too many problems, so should make a good first severe. | βeta? | |

βeta: I have no idea how anyone could vote 0 stars for this, it's a superb route. Take a straight line up it's more like HS 4b, the original grade requires you to keep going sideways, hence presumably the name. | βeta? | |
