167m, 7 pitches. Prestigous Scottish mountain classic with all that entails. Together with The True Finish this gives a monumental outing.

βeta: Pegs not even worth clipping anymore but protectable otherwise anyways. Not that bold if you bring some microcams.

βeta: All of the pegs and in situ gear mentioned in the guidebook or on here are shite and not turstworthy, although most of it can be backed up. Needing a good clear out.

βeta: The in situ cam on the crux of P2 seems to be in an ok state. Can be backed up by a gold offset. The pegs are indeed rubbish (the one on P2 is just a way marker). P2 is currently dry enough - didn’t have to use any wet holds.

βeta: UKC user comments on state of in situ gear are accurate, it’s poor - especially low down.

βeta: The (small) overhang at end of pitch 4 does exist. It's avoided on its left side using a small corner.

βeta: Believe the SMC Glen Coe guide has some errors. The "Climb the overhanging corner above" at the end of p4 doesn't seem to exist, and the tech grades for the last two pitches are the wrong way round (based on personal experience and G Latter). Latters description seems better but id split his pitch 5.
