Ascents of Werner Burner

Climbing is a very complex sport, there is so many different aspects and techniques that you need to master in order to be a good (or at least decent) climber.

This climb challenges mainly three skills. 1. Pump management, 2. Resting positions and recovery. 3. Pace!

If you've started to reach the point where you are sending the 20-22 grade you will enjoy this thriller where for 25 meters you will not know the result, like a role game every move you are closer to see a happy ending, but every move the not very happy ending is also closer

EOD, of course....the dogs.

Gundula's first climb at Point Perp. I should have chosen something a bit easier for us to warm up on Amazing climb though, but it's more like a mixed route if you start low enough. Pumpy at the end, but not that technical. Maybe soft for 21? I agree with the book's grade — 20.

super line, exposed:) top 3m is a little run out.. although it is very juggy, if your feeling pumped you might be glad you placed a cam or two on rap down. Defnately do clip in to 1/2 rings on way down otherwise ull be hanging in space by the time you reach belay ledge level

Steep jug pulling to a series of layback moves to finish. Thanks for leading, Mitch. It was much easier as a second.

Great little route, with nice features the whole way. Not 21 though, its 2 grades easier than just Technical.

Repeat. This time seconding Rob. Enjoyable steep-ish climbing, though a touch contrived. Probably more 20 than 21, though.

Big Jugs, Steep climbing. Pump really kicks in after halfway. Will return for another crack when fresh.

Pumpy jug hauling through typical Point Perp pockets and breaks over steep terrain, with some nice moves on flakes to finish. Definitely not grade 21. Placed a BD #1 size cam between (I think) bolts 3 and 4.

Easy but pumpy

so good

Soft. Had a boat full of babes watching us cruise up the overhangs.

First climb of the day. I used an interesting finger jam sequence near the top with my left hand for one of the moves. Top quality rock.

Rapped too far but had gear for the start. Awesome steep climbing!

Rapped too far, and had an unprotected 15m semi-chossy slab to start the climb. Funky thuggery, with a technical move or two thrown in to break up the monotony. Pumpy and hard at the end of the day, though definately soft at 21. From the bottom it looks much harder than it is, it climbs well.

Not sure about the grade the guide says 20. Probably too pumpy for a 20.

Fantastic - rapping-in also an adventure. Very pumpy.

first blood

pretty good and nice exposure

Good new route. Pumpy but straightforward.
