βeta: I am surprised no one thinks this is more than 6b+. I couldnt get to the third clip going straight, not even top roping. Had to go around the boulder on the right, which seems quite dangerous when leading in case of a fall. And it is still quite hard. Can it be done straight as a 6b+? | βeta? | |
