Is this route really a grade III or is that a typo? I have always seen it written up in guidebooks as a grade II and that seems to jive with the written descriptions I've seen.
That is one of the very few leftovers remaining from the original page "owner" of this route page, who had made numerous mistakes and assertions. Perhaps so people would not be surprised by the difficulties encountered? Or perhaps using a European grading system that puts "Grade III" as a multiple-day climb? I'm not sure.
I agree with your assessment. It is actually Grade II, Class 3.

Just excellent!Concise, sequential, well illustrated. Better than a guide booklet I saw being touted highly elsewhere. Great job 10/10
