βeta: Can’t believe I’ve left this for so long! Under graded for typical ‘winter’ conditions of soft snow and frozen turf as a bonus. Relies on hooks/torques, so quick to become climbable. Andy traversed airily right from the top of the first strenuous crack. Climbed directly up to the P2 chimney/groove by a steep short groove from the Terrace belay just left of Feb/Scouse Adventurer. (Dependent on a turf placement and ice smear)
