βeta: Go high before committing to the right traverse swinging on the hidden mono. A thin foot ledge beckons. Never too pumpy for this grade, so long as you keep in balance. Great route. | ||

βeta: It's a good idea to take 2 or 3 60cm draws for this one. Would recommend putting them on the first couple of bolts on the 7a line if you're using them, and on the rightmost bolt after the diagonal traverse. Drag at the top can get pretty bad otherwise, though the climbing is easier thereabouts. | ||

βeta: Take your time on the way to the 1st, one obvious hold is slightly loose. | ||

βeta: Crux moves are a lot easier when you notice the really deep mono. | ||
