βeta: well worth the stars! The \'au cheval\' move was one of the strangest moves i\'ve done. midge free until the path down where we experienced what a level 5 midge forecast entailed... | ||

βeta: You can protect the move over the overlap either with a small cam in the crack at the back of the overhang or a purple cam in the break above the overlap, just don't put it in the way of the jam. Also there is a small hold if you're tall enough (I'm 5'8" and could reach it) on the left side of the crack above the overlap if you are like me and hate jams with all your life. | ||

βeta: The 'au cheval' move really is so so much harder for the shorter climber. would say like E3 or more if your 5ft2 | βeta? | |

βeta: Walk in took 2hrs. Completely overgrown and climbers' path was impossible to find. Climb was well worth it though! | βeta? | |

βeta: Fantastic route but wet and slippy for us. Lead first two pitches, nice climbing but the damp made the friction moves abit hairy. Followed up the third pitch with the 'au cheval' move; pretty sure I cracked a rib on the edge by hauling myself over the sharp bit like a seal. Much easier if you treat it like a mantel. Gregor got a few moves into the fourth 'blank slab' pitch before the heavens opened, so retreated back to the belay. Made the decision to abb off rather than continue due to lack of friction on a friction slab... | ||
