Telendos Eros | ||||||
6c+ | ★★ Aphrodite | 25m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Awesome steep jugs to finish and amazing day at Telendos.
|
||||||
7b 7a+ | ★★ Eros Telendos | 35m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Couldn't believe I pulled through on this. Can definitely feel the improvements in stamina after over a week here.
Ivan went first but bailed after the first three draws so I guess it was part flash.
Awesome and steep through the first half but then some weird spikey slab up top. Three lines of bolts all sharing the same holds. Bizarre.
|
||||||
6c | ★★★ 3 Îlots (3 Ilots) | 32m, 12 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Absolutely magical up the vertical wall. Perfect two finger pockets wherever you need them.
|
||||||
7a | ★★★ Nymph | 20m, 6 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Mon 27th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Spartacus | ||||||
6b+ | ★★ Le 13ème Travail d' Hercules (Le 13eme Travail d' Hercules) | 35m | ★ Good | |||
Techy and quite run out for a kalymnos climb. Still adequately bolted even if it's a little heady.
|
||||||
7a | ★★★ Kerveros | 30m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Absolutely desperate but just held on. Really sweet climb. Guidebook says it was polished but I thought it was fine.
|
||||||
7a+ | ★★ Jellyfish Pie | 30m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Got up with one fall but what a fall it was!!!! Really techy stuff up a vertical wall with tiny two finger and mono pockets.
|
||||||
Mon 27th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Grande Grotta | ||||||
7a+ | ★★★ Ivi | 20m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
After trying it a few days before I managed to snag this one first go of the day. As is often the case in kalymnos, knee bars were the key.
|
||||||
Sun 26th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Grande Grotta | ||||||
7a | ★★★ DNA | 20m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Got all the info on the rests and gave it a blast. Couldn't believe just how big the jugs were. Probably the easiest 7a I've tried in kalymnos despite the steepness.
|
||||||
Sun 26th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Spartacus | ||||||
6c+ 7a | ★★ Mon Batchounousougounoudoudou | 30m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Super pumpy. Thought I was off for sure at the slopey rail but just managed to claw through.
|
||||||
6c 6c+ | ★★★ Les Amazones | 30m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Some of the coolest moves you'll find anywhere stemming up the tufas.
|
||||||
6b+ | ★★ Harakiri | 25m, 9 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Sat 25th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Odyssey | ||||||
7c | ★★★ Polifemo | 20m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Got through the main boulder problem without too much fuss. With a good knee bar and getting a good sequence on the slab at the top I think I could do this one.
Definitely a tall person climb.
|
||||||
7b+ | ★★★ Alfredo, Alfredo | 20m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Had two goes and got most of it. Still pulled on draws through the crux though. A long way off making this.
|
||||||
6c 6c+ | ★★ Imia | 25m, 11 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Great technical climbing even though it's not a glorious overhang.
|
||||||
6a+ | ★ Penelope | 18m, 7 | ★ Good | |||
Fri 24th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Iannis | ||||||
7a | ★★ Sens Unique | 40m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Technical side pulling on slopey edges most of the way up. Had to climb it twice to retrieve a draw I accidentally skipped on the traverse.
|
||||||
7a+ | ★★ Verikoko | 30m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Thought I had it in the bag, but the unexpected thin section at the top got me.
|
||||||
6c | ★★ Zagori | 40m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Looks average from the bottom but is nothing but class.
|
||||||
6b | ★★ Kalyne | 30m, 12 | ★ Good | |||
Thu 23rd Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Palionisos Secret Garden | ||||||
7a+ | ★★ Adolflahaut | 25m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Finally had a half hearted attempt at projecting and gave this two goes. Was just a little too pumped to pull the last crux move but was cool to see the improvement from first to second try. Maybe I should session routes a little more.
|
||||||
7a | ★★★ Ricounet | 25m, 11 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Probably my favourite route in Kalymnos so far. Pumpy start to some crazy stemming through the tufas.
Said 7a on the wall but 6c+ in the guidebook. Let's go with 7a ;-)
|
||||||
6c | ★★★ Frapogalo | 25m, 11 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Not sure what happened here. Just got too pumped.
|
||||||
6b | ★★ Kalolimnos | 20m, 9 | ★ Good | |||
Wed 22nd Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Grande Grotta | ||||||
7a+ | ★★★ Ivi | 20m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Unreal climbing! It's definitely more than just jug hauling with some tricky stuff in there too. Need to get on DNA next.
|
||||||
Wed 22nd Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Panorama | ||||||
7a | ★★ Cigarillo | 28m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Bloody hard. Fell off getting into cave then couldn't quite keep my composure going to the anchor either with all the garbage holds around it.
|
||||||
6b | ★★ Carpe Diem | 16m, 8 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Maybe even a little better than it's neighbour.
|
||||||
6b+ | ★★ Panselinos | 20m, 12 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Beautiful. Just beatifu.l
|
||||||
Tue 21st Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Odyssey | ||||||
6b+ | ★ Mythos | 32m | Average | |||
Sharp and shitty.
|
||||||
7a+ | ★★★ Island in the Sun | 20m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Made it all the way through the glorious tufas then got shut down right at the top. The bottom section of the climb is definitely what gives it it's stars though.
|
||||||
6c | ★★★ Feta | 18m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Tufa climbing at it's best!
|
||||||
6a 6a+ | ★ Mon Amour (Mon Amore) | 28m | Average | |||
The guide book has a cool ghost story about this route. Pretty average though.
|
||||||
Mon 20th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Odyssey | ||||||
6c+ | ★★ Il Gigante e la Bambina | 22m | Average | |||
Couldn't get past the crappy sharp shit off the ground. Looked like a cool line above though.
|
||||||
6c+ | ★★★ Satyros | 20m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Delicate at the bottom leading into a pumpy and sustained top.
Managed to find one of the weirdest rests imaginable, with one leg on a hold, one flagging and then half lying down in a small groove.
|
||||||
6c+ 7a | ★★ Caribbean Wedding (Carribbean Wedding) | 20m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Radical stemming up the steep corner then pump control to the top.
|
||||||
6c | ★ Lestrygon | 22m, 13 | ★ Good | |||
A little weird but pretty cool at he top.
|
||||||
6b+ | ★★ Why Not? | 15m | ★ Good | |||
So bouldery!
|
||||||
6b+ | ★★ Atena | 18m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Sun 19th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Grande Grotta | ||||||
6c | ★★ Taz | 27m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Tried to quickly fit this in while we were running from the sun. So gassed and hot that it turned into an absolute dog fest.
|
||||||
Sun 19th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Panorama | ||||||
7a | ★★ UP | 35m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Almost all the climbing up this extension was amazing at about 6c, then there was just a shitty awkward move at the very top that made it 7a.
|
||||||
6c+ | ★ Steven Up | 20m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Awesome and techy up the vertical wall before the overhnging extension kicks in.
|
||||||
6c+ | ★★ Lothar Là (Lothar La) | 35m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Not quite enough juice in the tank at the top.
|
||||||
6b+ | ★★ Lothar Scie | 20m | ★★ Very Good | |||
6b 6b+ | ★★ Uncle Ernie | 20m | ★ Good | |||
Pretty insecure at the start but improves the higher you go.
|
||||||
Sun 19th Jun 2016 - Kalymnos | ||||||
Armeos Grande Grotta | ||||||
6c+ 7a | ★★ KalyPige | 35m, 17 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Glorious all he way to the top. Found a good rest in a tufa but almost greased out of it with the amount of sweat going on. It sure was a hot one today.
|
||||||
6a+ 6b | ★★ Monahiki Elia | 25m, 9 | ★★★ Classic | |||
First impressions of Kalymnos are freaking awesome!!!
