βeta: Anyone who thinks this route is polished hasn't been to Stoney ! a good honest VS with some fun moves.

βeta: Did this at the weekend and after the awkward start it eases and gives a good rest at half height. With the warnings about polish I expected it to be in worse condition than I found it in. There are two large loose blocks 2/3rds of the way up that, unless you like pulling on suspect rock, force you onto the left arete for a couple of moves. Good fun, but doesn't deserve 3*.

βeta: Rather polised, awkward and with a few loose holds. No where near comparable in quality to a 3 star route at Malham!
