βeta: To echo James’ comment below, the Wired Guide topo will send you onto Men Only for a fair bit before actually going further left into a horribly loose and shattered corner that leads to the MO belay ledge. Even following the solid rock on MO is hard 5b through two roofs. Best to follow the description in this case.

βeta: The top pitch is not worth doing. It is a short bit of easy climbing that leads to a sketchy steep grassy finish. 50m ropes reach the ground from the bolted belay and I wish we had gone down from there.

βeta: ⚠️ Caution: The line marked in the new Wired Guide is totally wrong and wanders between what was ‘Run Free’ and ‘Men Only’… You might find terrain far in excess of VS/HVS.

βeta: I left a black Lululemon shirt at the base of the climb L.M.F. (slightly to the right - 23/08/21). If someone picks it up, please get in touch with me to arrange pickup or post. I will of course pay! Many, many thanks :)

βeta: Fantastic route (at least 1st 2 pitches). some great moves in both pitches & really fun to climb. Abseiled off after 2nd pitch

βeta: Climbing is on big holds with relatively spaced gear. Don't bother with the third pitch, which is a short bit of decent climbing and a long, sketchy, grassy walk while being eaten alive by midgies.
