βeta: Got up to the large flake, but it looks so dodgy, loose rock behind it and hollow when you hit it, only gear is a nut next to a chock stone with doesn’t look secure. Next gear is good but quite far down. If the flake comes off you’re probably going to have a bit accident so down climbed and did the e1 which avoids it . Wouldn’t risk it | βeta? | |

βeta: large loose flake on first pitch is getting pretty dangerous now, especially since your protection at the time is behind other loose blocks and you pretty much have to use the flake | ||
