Ascents in Schlafender Löwe

Crux mit Kante 7-, ohne 7+. Tolle, technische und kraftvolle Züge. Perfekt abgesichert.

Crux vom 1. Haken weg sowie am 4. Haken. Wunderschöner weg, tolle Züge, einfach klasse und top abgesichert!

When I did this, I wasn't aware that I was doing it all trad because the dragon #3 that was still in, from doing the route next to this, seemed like such a good placement. That was also where the climbing was the hardest.

Linked both direct variants, using all 5 bolts. Too exciting as a warm up but great! Nice and technical with an awkward crux above the 2nd bolt and a slab crux higher up. The top part is easy but run-out. Dragon #3 and red torque nut to mitigate. My first route in this area.

Technical but easy below the first bolt. The rooflet itself is a little hard to read but fun.

Good route! I see the point in british grades now. Not too hard but heady!! Good placements for big wires half way to the first bolt but then not much above. Used a 2nd bolt though.

Rad moves at the top where the wall feels 2° overhanging. Definitely the hardest climbing I did in Okertal so far. After some playing around while lowering from the neighboring route, I figured I wanted to do it. Put some nuts in at the top beforehand. One of them I could not get out anymore. 1st bolt looks good. 2nd one on the "head wall" not so much. (used additional gear).

Great! According to my topo I did "Ostwand-Verschneidung Direkt 4+". The second half is really adventurous, immersive and not too easy! First try, it felt like oldschool, french 5c. The placements there are bomber though! Big wires and a red tourque-nut in my case. Dragon #3 and/ or 4 useful for the initial slab.
