βeta: In its current state this is unclimable, the bottom half is loose choss, the head wall is smeared with glue and broken holds, the top section is featureless and lichen covered and the chains are over the top surrounded by loose blocks and plants. Not a star 3 climb. It would be a favour to call it 0 stars.
