Subtle bridging makes this well worth doing. One of the easier routes in the quarry - if you can get off the ground! © Rockfax

βeta: Great route in an amazing place. Section between first and second bolts seemed like the crux, especially since there are some reachy holds. The sticky-outy jug just above third bolt is wobbly, though I've read it has been like this since 2004 or something - so no worries here really. Final move uses a decent jug on top of a ammonite!

βeta: Interesting start if you are short until you see a little bit of beta to the left side of the base and a nice traverse across to the second bolt but if drop here with only the first bolt in I could imagine it hurst a little.

βeta: the vital hold to get to the third clip is now a bit wobbly (bit which juts out of the vertical crack) but is still sound as a pound to put your full weight on!

βeta: Probably the easiest route in the quarry. But definately not crap. Low in the grade - if you can get off the ground! Deserves a star in my opinion...

βeta: Not crap at all! Subtle bridging makes this well worth doing. Women climb this better than men because they don't try to muscle it. Now has at least 3 bolts to LO.
