βeta: Really enjoyed this, first try sport climbing outdoors. Had to stop for a bit half way up and work out where to go... tricky when you are used to the route being colour coordinated. | βeta? | |

βeta: Hard for the grade (maybe 6b+?) but one of the best 6b's I have ever done....I can't believe hardly anyone tries it. Very well bolted now and great moves on really solid rock...do it! | βeta? | |

βeta: Another great route that doesnt seem to get done as often as it should. Its only 200m from the quarrymans wall and the old bolts are fine - do it! | βeta? | |
