Ascents in Turkey by DS

Definitely hard and one of the better test piece here. Probably the best 7c route in Geyikbayiri, technical right off the bat, followed by pleasant and superb tufa climbing to a dead point crux and average rest and 7-8 moves of power endurance towards the anchors. Probably better not to clip the last Quickdraw when doing a red point attempt as there’s not really any pleasant holds to clip from. 5 stars.

Great power endurance climbing on pockets and sharp holds. Big moves.

Super pumpy route. keen to get my fitness back after injury. Great climbing and moves off the bat on great tufa section and then the crux in the middle before the final rest and red point crux.

Great power endurance climbing

10 moves Boulder start to the jugs if you don’t stand on the tree. Super cool sequences and power endurance to a good rest ledge before a final crux sequence that guards the anchors.

finger pocket monoish crux

lay back crux and sustain once the crux starts

Great climbing with a easyish intro slowly building up into a hard move and then a good rest and the crux in the middle. Pockets up top are a bit muddy.

Easyish intro and slowly gets harder and harder till 2 boulder problems stack up on top of each other with the last one being the hardest and definitely a heartbreaker. Was 7b in the old guidebook and was downgraded by a tall dude. Locals still say its 7b. #2ndshot

Good holds at the start followed by a tricky and exciting crux and some muddy/wet pockets at the end awaits.

A pretty sandbag 6b+ which is hard right off the bat, its more like a 6c+/7a in my opinion but who knows. That last move was a killer.

Feels harder then it is and probably sandbag.

Nice warm up.

Three distinct crux 1st is a hard moon board ish boulder right off the bat and big moves to fairly good holds. then the next boulder that consist of a bigish move from an ok crimp to a ok hold and pockets and then some spicy lock off actions on crimps on the end. Full value but hard for the grade, will give it a 7B more likely

tricky moves on pockets and cruxy high up.

Harder than expected, when you thought the roof is the only crux and it keeps going.

Awesome to get this classic on the #2ndshot. Finally feeling some mojo back. Lets go. Great climbing on pockets and biggish holds and proper power endurance climbing. The top runout with the slab is interesting.

Great climbing with a long move in the middle for the crux

pockets to crimp crux

Superb line with amazing pockets and big moves and a commiting crux. Enjoy and fight the pump.

Stick Clip the 1st bolt if possible as the start is definitely cruxy. Cool climbing on pockets with a good rest in the middle and then the final crux heartbreaker crux awaits. Glad I got the flashed

Warm Up

Superb Climbing on pockets. Locals said it's more like 6c+

Felt Harder then the 6c+, Maybe because it was slabby. Cool line regardless

Glad to climb one of the first lines here, Technical and quite beta intensive and lots of trusting on your feet and smears especially for me at least.

Cruisy climbing till the last 2 bolts that will spit you off if not carefull

Follow the juggy crack lay back crack line to the top, possibility of placing gear on this line.

Great techy climbing

Last season originally I heard everyone said it was a tough 7B but surprise myself by sending it #2ndgo . Jugs to crimps to undercling pocket to a good jug and sustain climbing on jugs to the top.

When I first tried it I felt that it was so hard and seem impossible, probably because there wasn’t much psyched, went on a good day and it went down after sorting out the sequences. You basically climb the 6c to a good rest and then as you exit the rest the first crux comes at you hard and fast and it’s sustained the whole way towards the chains. Awesome

Share the same start with the 6b next to it and you get a no hands rest before a crimpy and technical crux with a hard to clip QuickDraw before another good rest and sequency moves to the top.

If you like pockets this is the climb to get on. Frankenjura style climbing with one or two finger pockets get you psyched. #2ndgo

Easy start, easy finish with a 4 moves crux that feel hard for the grade.

Climbing on tufa, pockets and jugs on the overhang with a sustain crux section before pulling over the lip to easier terrain #2ndgo

Easy climbing half of the route followed by a pretty tricky and tacky sequence all the way to the anchors.

Cool crimpy and technical sequences coupled by a power endurance tufa section towards the top. One of the best lines here for sure. Trust the footholds and it will go.

Hard Boulder at the start

At first when you look at it, it feels that it’s impossible for a 7a. High feet and a bit dynamic moves and it goes. Awesome line.

Warm up

A bit of a traverse to the left starting inside the cave and a big rest before some tricky and pumpy section towards the anchors.

Tricky first crux leads to a pretty pumpy and interesting finish with lots of big reaches.

Finally up my knee bar game and this went easy. Just gotta trust the knee bars. Awesome line on pockets and then tufas to big moves on overhanging incut jugs.

Big jugs on slight overhang, pumpy

A bit contrive where the blank section is. Nice climbing till there and you either go further left or right to make it a 6a
