βeta: Apparently did this once years ago. No recollection. Definitely felt like onsighting to me! Just about struggled to the top ground up. Fell off the start a couple of times first. | ||

βeta: I guess the HVS is for technique rather than for sustained climbing. Anyway, by the looks of the old peg at the top, the final climbing is on a pseudo 6-7m run out so the HVS is well deserved . . . | βeta? | |

βeta: The meat of the route is the awkward start. From then on, its pretty straightforward bridgeing. Probably a heresy to suggest that its not really sustained enough to be worth *** | βeta? | |
