βeta: Great challenge to learn Laybacking using the opposite wall and the tiny crack where the two rock faces meet. Careful as the moss on the opposite wall is very slippery. Great route! | ||

βeta: A big hold came off near the top so watch that space when you climb. Don't think this has affected the difficulty of the climb. | βeta? | |

βeta: Suspect flake 1.5m from the top on the righthand wall is crumbling away rather than falling off. Seems to be made from rotten MDF, possibly ok as a handhold but not ok for pro. | βeta? | |

βeta: Very flexy flake 1m from top. I snapped off one part. The other part is about to go. Take care. | βeta? | |

βeta: Felt more sustained than the other partner - Chiming Crack. Plenty of gear for the second to stop by and try to take out :) maybe a bit harder than 4a....definitely the harder part of the two jamming cracks. | βeta? | |

βeta: In the 1978 guide this got VS 4b, which is maybe overstating it but it's closer than HS 4a! Like others have said, it's considerably harder than Chiming Crack. | βeta? | |

βeta: Felt harder than 4a. Although can be stitched up with good gear all the way up. Sustained but technically easy with good gear. | βeta? | |
