Ascents in Solothurner Jura by Toby

Good technical climbing. Mid section was made harder by wet, muddy streak but it still goes. Final moves to the chains were surprisingly difficult on an ok hold but pretty bad feet.

Jenny lead it. Not too bad as a route. Some fun variations to be had.

All of the moves work except for one very wet and very slippery hold around the crux. Looking forward to finishing it when the key hand and footholds are not slimey

Really nice movement, climbs very well with lots of good flowing sections. Nice and continuous at the grade which make if fun. Recommended.

Er, wouldn’t bother even as a warm up.

Kind of fun but only one vaguely awkward move but straightforward. The rest is very easy.

OK I guess

Probably easier than the grade in the book. Fun as a straightforward warmup.

Surprisingly good route. Some really good moves with a nice crux. Not entirely trivial to onsight as many moves climb differently than as read from the ground and some more / different holds than they initially appear. I suspect it's often skipped as in a slight depression but well worth climbing.

There appear to be several routes here so not clear if this is still a project. the labelled route on the rock says 7a which is soft but reasonable. Interesting crux sequence and on nice rock. Made more difficult by some very wet holds. Went second go.

Cool route with three distinct cruxes and some chilled flowing climbing between. The second crux especially is quite technical and involves fun moves. The other two stiffer sections are just more powerful.

Ok as a warmup. not the best.

You can find a way to use some gratuitous jamming. Otherwise not really worth climbing. Lots of loose rock ready to come down.

Surprisingly difficult climbing on good rock until the very last holds. Most of the moves feel off balance and require good movement and good footwork. Was a nice climb after an epic 5hr hike to find the crag (but we found some more potential!).

Good moves on good rock. The crux appears to be some long reaches around mid height.

Very hard to read onsight, especially the first mini rooflet

Crux is only one move but quite hard to read the sequence. Tried more options than expected and found there’s a hard way and an easy way which is less obvious. Unfortunately it looks like someone has created a chipped foothold.

Just with right hand then again with minimum moves. Managed 7 hand holds used

2nd go really cool moves up onto the slab and good holds

Very good and very dirty .
