βeta: The peg is under the smaller penultimate O/H. Hard to see but definitely still there

βeta: Very lose big blocks, with some birds nesting in the crack. Decided to bail due to safety. Would definitely advise being extremely careful on this route.

βeta: Blowing an absolute gale! Lovely exposed position on the arete with a nice comforting jug of a flake to sink your hands behind. Moves left below the roof to topout felt quite tenuous.
