βeta: Not sure why this is E1… HVS is correct, plenty of gear and very short-lived crux moves

βeta: number 2 superlight is bomber high in the crack by crux, 4 offset at bottom of crack and other small wires in the middle

βeta: Looks like the vote distinctly place this between HVS and E1...hmmm... Quite a tricky little number. There is one great wire placement where you need it, thankfully, as the move to get past it is pretty poky. Not to be sniffed at.

βeta: Needs a reachy symbol... HVS 5b if you can reach the crucial holds. Dodgy gear.
