βeta: Not bad, the start is probably the hardest part, there's a nice little flake on the bottom right, easily spotted from all the chalk, brace on the right foot, get a bit higher and there are quite a few positive crimpy grips for the left allowing you the leverage to then reach up with the right to the nice obvious flake at the top, haul up, clip in and then simply climb to the top :) Not a particularly pleasant climb though.
