βeta: Pull straight through the overhanging crack at the crux - don't make the mistake of moving slightly left as I did, which makes it at least a grade harder. Friend 4 or bigger useful for protecting the crux, which is 4c at least.

βeta: I thought this was gorgeous but that the move near the top was closer to 4C - maybe my short arse again.
