βeta: In cloud most of the day so no view, but route was in fascistic nick. Pitches 2 and 6 were particularly great. Took a 50ft lob off pitch 7 and managed to smash my partner in the process. Somehow managed to break a crampon and ended up doing the last 4 pitches on one foot. Topping out in the dark to a lot of relief and one heck of a walk out. Also managed to start the day putting both my gaiters on the left boot, go figure.
