Fiddled around for ages after the first bolt to get a bad nut in, then found a decent placement for a black totem a meter above that, which I trusted enough to go up to the second bolt. Unfortunately I was almost completely empty at that point. Still, I pushed on past the bolt, and even tried to bump up with my last strength, so I took a nice whipper. Didn't manage to get to the third bolt after that, though, I was just too exhausted. Next try is going to be much easier, no more fiddling around in the lower part.

Fantastic endurance piece. I first had the impression that the crux would be at the fourth bolt, but actually a little dyno gets you through that passage. Brilliant, flowy climbing up to the bulge with the big ring. Had to call it a day there after a dozen tries. Hints welcome! So far, I grab the undercling with the left, cross over into the narrow pocket with the right hand, grab the horn out left and bump to a sidepull with the right. I can freely position my feet in that position, but I have yet to figure out how to continue.

No chance on this one. Two slanting fingertip sloper crimps and a long move to a bad sloper with a slight pocket. Tried a few things, found an option with a fragile structure, but it broke (sorry). I saw others climb it later that day, looked much harder than what the grade suggests (but also tricky).

Soaking wet in many places, so I didn't go for a real onsight attempt, but I wouldn't have expected to get very far anyway. Bailed at the last bolt (that is, about halfway up or so), but I tasted blood. Feels much more manageable than "Luftballondach".

Resorted to aid in the upper part. The first half actually went quite well, placing two nuts included, but then had to sit in the rope around half-way up. From there I was able to find a possible solution to the next two meters, but no more than that. I guess this is another one from the category "should check out on TR solo to not annoy my belayer". Nasty, open jams further up, probably better with the correct tape treatment (which I hastily applied en route) or crack gloves.

Got to the second to last bolt before the roof, prepared for a reachy move to a jug, but didn't put enough juice into it. Couldn't recover from that move, so I had to rest. After the move, you can easily clip, but there's another boulder awaiting. I don't even want to know how to get over the roof, but I could imagine that it might be easier than the part before. Tried a few things but had to give up because it got dark. The lower half (I assume part of "Donnerdach") is already quite challenging, felt hard for 7+/8-.

Bummer. Seems like there's a solution on the right, but that one eluded me as well, tried a few times and took good falls, but to no avail.

Oh wow. Brilliant wall climbing, around 8+, for about 19 of the 20 meters. Then suddenly it felt like I got sweat into my eyes, because the final section didn't seem to contain any holds. Fell off after a desperate attempt to hold on to the (probably eponymous) sloper. After a few tries, I was able to reach the next pocket and even stand up, but the faint crack above doesn't contain any holds either. Gave up and bailed to the anchor of "Spatz in der Hand" after a few more tries.

Well … such a shame. The pockets up to and slightly above the first bolt are fantastic, the texture and colour of the rock is amazing. But then it suddenly stops. Also barely any chalk marks above that point. I bet a jug must have broken off, otherwise this is certainly not climbable for 9-. Dynamically into a bad mono, then another bad mono, then what? Jump a full meter to a mediocre pocket? I don't think so.

After a strenuous start, the runout to the second bolt isn't too bad. After that it's pockets typical for this section of the wall, but at one point, with your feet one meter above the last bolt, it suddenly stops. You have to jump to the jugs, but I didn't dare to do it at first try. Wouldn't have worked, anyway. I tried a few times but always got the pocket in a place where it was totally wet, so I gave up for the time being.

Somehow got myself into an awkward position in the final bulge. Had no immediate idea how to solve it, so I pulled myself up on the draw, because the sun was already setting … hadn't realised that clock change had been on Sunday already, otherwise I wouldn't even have gone climbing that late.

Not sure how this is supposed to be climbed. Looks like a few holds in the overhang broke and it's now even harder; however, after the second bolt, the much more obvious line is to go straight up, right into the project on the right (which has rusty old bolts in it, too, so I guess this was climbed earlier already?).

Despite the rest of the wall being quite dry, the crucial sloper was totally wet and slimy … not a chance under these circumstances, and it withstood all attempts to dry it; after a few seconds, some big drops of water from above undid my work.

Got through the first hard section on two-finger pockets, but couldn't feel my fingers afterwards while hanging on the jug, so I took a sit. Not exactly the best way to warm up. Couldn't figure out the section over the last bolt and saw that the top was wet anyway, so I lowered for the time being.

Tried to stick to today's topic (slight variation): cracks. Had to retreat at the third bolt due to the sun setting (and my feet hurting). I had no clue how to get past this bolt. Sketchy layback moves only lead me to even more sketchy pockets in the "crack", without any footholds to gain height. Hard already up to this point, but I imagine it wouldn't have been over. Another one to come back to …

Hard boulder problem to the second bolt. The third bolt is way too high; at the moment, there's a piece of rope in it to prevent you from falling to the ground. The upper part is way easier, but still not a piece of cake. Sharp holds there. The real problem, though, is the bad sidepull/undercling before the good hold to clip the first bolt. Could only pull on it on the first try, then I got too weak already.

Checked out the route from above and put long slings into the bolts. The protection is more than dangerous … even with 2 meters worth of slings in the second bolt, you could maybe still hit the ground. More important even is to prolong the anchor over the bulge, so you can clip before doing the overhang moves, or you'll risk another ground fall. But with all this additional safety measures, I fell just after clipping the first bolt. The crux is directly at the start.

Tried this at the end of the day. Couldn't do the finishing moves out of the overhang to the anchor. ;-) Nice start with dynamic moves into jugs, then a good rest with a kneebar; the crux section starts just after the third bolt up to the anchor.
