Ascents in Karenin

Absolutely fucking nails.....hardest 6c+ I have ever climbed.....slab nightmare...but at least I tried

doable but very hard; tried it again, still too hard, couldn't do the roof-move

Grade is appropriate in my opinion. I personally felt that a strong mental game was required rather than power or technique. Found it to be interesting and homogeneous until after the roof - after that, well, it’s a slab, pretty straightforward.

The route is really nice, though there are couple of things to be careful about. The orientation and the protection. After the overhang, the route goes slightly in right, and you will only be able to see the anchor after you clip the bad bolt - and about the bad bolt itself - you will spot it after you climb the overhang, it is with a pink cord tied on it and is a big high.

Hard route to on-sight and very thin and polished crux. Putting the draws on is a little intense.

So stoked i got this.....very technical through the crux and sustained for the most. Good Blue Mountains run outs right where you would expect them......worth the effort.

Bouldery as hell at the grade. Cruisy climbing and then a really tough boulder problem....it'll go next time.

Got it putting the draws on again.

kurze Tour, Schlüsselstelle an der 2. Exe. Danach recht leicht.

One move wonder

Watch out for ledge at start of overhang

Leider nach mehreren Versuchen nicht durchgestiegen. Coole Route. Gz Juuls💪🏼

Lezla jsem do pulky pod headwall.
