2nd go

2nd go

sehr harte Meter bis zum Band, dann Genuss. Kam mir wie 8+ vor..

3rd go. Kurz, aber sehr schön!

Probably hasn't seen many ascents this year yet; still quite dusty. Nice pocket climbing after a boulder start on small holds.

zäher als die rechten Nachbarn...

Harder for small people, you need to put your feet way up high to get over the bulges; nice pockets and a good #warmup.

Small and painful holds in to the bulge, then a few powerful moves, an easy transition section and a delicate finish.

Funny jug route. Bouldery start, again: harder for small people who cannot reach up to the good pocket.

Picked a variant at the start where almost all my bodyweight was on a painful two-finger pocket. Got up to the last bolt, but didn't sort my fingers correctly into the hold from which you need to clip; bummer.

Backed off a few times from the ugly start and then decided to go a completely different path and start with a reachy dyno towards a good pocket on the left. Worked out nicely. Got my own beta wrong after the last bolt but managed to improvise.

Already had my fingers in the final jug when I suddenly fell off … I happened to film the attempt and the video shows that my foot slipped.

Felt much easier now. Mostly good holds, you could campus the moves between first and second bolt.

Relatively easy up to the last bolt; from there you somehow need to get up into the featureless slab over the small bulge. I used a mono to the left to stabilise myself and put my right foot to my right hand onto the jug.

Quite hard, I'd grade it 8, especially compared to "Diamantenfieber" and "Platin" to the right. Unusual crack/dihedral climbing, the bolts are hard to clip; after the ledge it's really easy.

For the moment, I'd put this down as 8+. Tiny pockets and crimps with the hardest moves right from the ground. I guess I'll take a crash pad for my next attempt, had the first bolt pre-clipped. Merges into "Diamantenfieber" after the bulge in the middle.

The slab is easier than in "Diamantenfieber" (but also nicer since it's more forgiving for the fingers), but I lost the overview at the bulge. Turns out there's a big pocket I just didn't see.

With the good pocket, the bulge felt relatively easy; the slab in the end is quite interesting, though.

2nd go

4th go. Two Bouldersections, seperated by a nohandrest balcony. Crux is the start from the balcony

I had fun but to be honest of course it is like it looks: quite shitty

2nd go. Hard, reachy move from the balcony...

Ausstieg schlonzig, nicht machbar.

#2go

Unübersichtlich und hart. Crux nach dem letzten Haken.

Ende des Tages - zu platt gewesen. Schlüsselzug zum Ende nicht verstanden
