βeta: This is a serious route for both the leader and second a fall by either would almost certainly result in hitting the slab below before the rope started to catch. Very large cams might mitigate... I would not argue with a grade of HVS 4b. It is certainly worth at least VS 4b.

βeta: Large cam (6 plus) needed to protect the bottom section which is particularly smooth.

βeta: Wired says this is a VS (definitely not)... but probably a bit harder than a VD (a little exposed)... S?
