βeta: Some loose blocks at mid-top height, extendable qds are also invaluable for the bottom section. | βeta? | |

βeta: In response to a few comments below. This route does not have a lower off due to its length and due to the fact that many climbers would not have a 70 or 80 metre rope! Sensibly belay at the top and enjoy the view. The bolt spacing and placements (zigzaging) were due to finding the most solid slate to drill and of course avoiding any hollow sounding placements... | βeta? | |
