Begehungen in Edelsteine

groovy

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

2nd go

3rd go

Semihard Start. Single Crux from the third bolt.

2nd go

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.

3rd go

cool

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

Slabby Start, bulgy middle, easy end

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.

2nd go

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

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.

Vermutlich habe ich die richtigen Tritte nach dem Fingerklemmer noch nicht gefunden?

6 pok.

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.

Ausstieg schlonzig, nicht machbar.

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

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