Description

Crack party is a trad only area, accessed by ropes up from the right of the central area.

Approach

Traverse right across the base of the Central Area (passing under the boulder from which 'Crack a gogo' starts).

Ethic inherited from Cadarese

Cracks here are often bolted, though newer lines are usually done on trad. Make sure to consult local groups before adding any bolts, bolts have been chopped. Route names can be identified by writing at the base of the climb.

Grade Route

From "21°" follow the ledge to the left until the end to a bolt. The big crack in the corner can be protected with Cam #5

Set: Markus Lipp, May 2023

The right leaning finger crack on the slabby wall (it's leaning forward 21°) just before the staircase leading to "Lo sceriffo di cada".

Follow the finger crack until the end and than change into the well protected dihedral.

Set: Markus Lipp, 26 May 2023

The path ascends via some steps cut into stone, then a staircase. 'Lo sceriffo di Cada' starts at the top of these stairs.

Set: Andrea Sommaruga

Curving crack that links to the finish of 'La Freccia'.

Cam 1 and 2 are really useful

After the slab, take best a Cam Nr. 0.3, 3 and 4 with you. There could also be used a sling around a jammed rock instead of the Nr. 4.

The route follows the striking arete about 100 meters to the right of "Bookcake".

Not yet graded but rated RX!
