Ascents in Greece as various tick types by Tobias Auth

#repeat 2.5 stars. Probably 3 in good conditions and after brushing! Last route of the trip.

#repeat Starts to deserve a "b" I think.

I was surprised this did not feel greasy or too smooth. Personal grade as tall person with long arms: 7a. Easier to start (pocket-jug, sidepull-jug, mega-jug) and could skip the mini two finger side pull and reach far left gaston instead. Really fun movement throughout. I was glad Danny picked this because it was not on my list.

Not sure what to think about this. Scary to lead. Runout.

2nd go. Cool route to project. Not easy to OS.

#repeat

Really good moves. Some holds and footholds seem "enhanced" (in parts) but climbs reeally well! A crux that goes a little left and right again. Small holds and small feet! Solid 6c for Kaly.

Quite techy and wandery. 6a+.

Great climb on tufa jugs and big slots. One short hard part towards the anchor. Otherwise very enjoyable 6a-ish.

After the approach pitch (a nice climb on its own), steep 3D jugs in a chimney (kind of) and some smaller holds to exit onto the headwall. More solid at the grade compared to Stoned woman and Heidrun. P1 6a P2 6c seems fair.

A jug fest with a techy crux and some hidden holds. Wonderful gym-like climb! Easy for the grade if you're comfortable in this terrain.

Both pitches as one. P1 not much more than an approach pitch. P2 is awesome! A broccoli-coated dihedral with a ~4m long tufa at the top (that you actually use!!). 45 to 50m low 6b+. If you're comfortable with laybacking on tufas! If P2 was a first pitch at sector Poets, it would be one of the most popular routes for sure.

Worst fixed anchor gear of the whole trip.

Awkward start. Better above.

Not sure about the grade (maybe a tad soft even for Kaly standards) but it climbs well! Pockets, crimps, good feet.

4c and a small foothold.

Climbs well. Solid 1.5 stars? Kaly 6b+/c?

Mostly good crimps and a little thin broccoli but good feet all the way. Tricky body positioning. The 7a grade is a joke. 6b+ or very generous 6c.

The crux is the best part about this. Solved it with a high left foot. Layback into long gaston – if that makes sense. Partly smooth brown rock – glad to OS. My OS beta felt like 7b but saw better beta by Basti. Comparing to other 7a+es on Kaly that grade seems fair.

The right one of the two lines above the name. Don't remember much. Dihedral crux and some small holds to an easier rooflet.

Great fun with several "incut" handjams and good moves. Everyone seemed to agree on 6c, maybe 6c+ in crag context.

Just a single hard move to a sharp hold. Otherwise around 6a.

Far easier than expected. Cool climbing though! Felt like 6b/+ to me. A reachy crux, so may be harder (around 6c/+?) for shorter climbers, like Mike pointed out. Never 7a/+.

Nice rock and a moonboard-style boulder at the bulge. Maybe 6B moonboard level. Upper end 7a. Could be a Kaly 7a+.

Felt very easy. 5b/c?

Knew the first, low crux from Mike's OS but didn't expect the tricky slab! Good! 6c/+ seems fair.

clean lead #repeat as warm-up. Belayed Dan on Priapos and watched Mathias send FDC 2nd go afterwards. Ready for the restday.

Grade doesn't fit the crag context of compared to the route to the left. No great climbing either. Small and smooth foothold crux.

Awesome top half! Classic for the grade. #repeat

Sustained and thin. Not far off my limit in this style (right now I guess). Solid 6c+ for Kaly. Really good route.

One very thin part. Very good!! Solid for the grade by Kaly standards I'd say.

Bad feet above the second bolt. Nice otherwise. #repeat

Hidden pockets at the start. Tricky top part worked out right away.

Short but 5b limestone is not gonna get much better, I think. Really good for the grade.

#repeat getting QDs back.

Super spiky but really good!

Easy to a big flake, some harder but nice moves, not using the cracked feature.

Slab with demanding footwork on good rock.

Quite constructed in parts but the top bulge really makes up for that and climbs incredibly well. Great fun! One (juggy) part completely wet (like most routes on orange rock here today). Tufas in most other routes completly seeping and fully wet. 6b+/6c

Feels quite sketchy in parts. Especially the (broken) tree branches that are more or less in the line of a fall in the top crux (where a lot of crumbly broccoli is). Otherwise nice. Left a snap biner in the last bolt because the belay looked a bit weird (being so close to the humidity of the tufa probably). Top part tufa-humping was fun.

Excellent view over the village.

A fun and techy tufa dihedral and spiky top bulge (thin ropes will not approve).
