βeta: Quite dirty at the moment. The moves from out of the cave are reachy and I found them quite hard, definately the tech crux for me. The top is easier but bolder. Small friends go in the top break but aren't bomber. E3 but no soft touch. | βeta? | |

βeta: Gear situation is a bit odd on this. Most natural set-up is to place an obvious side-runner to protect the hard and easily fluffable shallow groove above the cave, then once on the ledge stuff the thin crack full of small but good wires. Makes a steady E2 this way. Groove is nasty and the crux, top wall is delightful and makes it 2 stars overall. | βeta? | |
