βeta: Quite a pleasing route, flows well. Just the right amount of pro, and in just the right places (I have a tendency to place gear wherever it's available, routes like this are good where there aren't unecessary placements so you can concentrate on the moves instead). Definately best without the aretes, and it's not too hard to avoid them.

βeta: I really enjoyed this and found nothing artificial in avoiding the arete. Just go up the middle of the slab. Crux for me was the first mantleshelf. Overgraded.
