βeta: Not sure what the comments about micro wires / cams we're about. Felt adequately protected with standard gear. | ||

βeta: P1 has the potential to be extremely bold at the crux which feels more like 5a than 4c. BD micros 3 & 4 and 3/8 Alien makes it pretty well protected. | ||

βeta: Tricky couple of moves for vs onto the whaleback. Very small cam protects it but then makes moves harder. | ||

βeta: Starting crack on first can be very wet, pushing you right onto drier but featureless slab - friction smears and no gear although it eases as you go up. Crux on first pitch needs a small cam (I used black totem, DMM 00 may fit) or small (and slightly suspect nuts) to protect the friction dependent crux - tricky when your shoes are wet! Definitely feels like 5a. Second pitch can be absolutely soaking wet and there is loose rock and plenty of dirt / grass. | ||
