Really nice rock, but bolting is terrible.

Am Ende wird's noch einmal spannend

Vor dem Umlenker abgegriffen

one of my first organic "big" falls of the trip on a grade i am usually confident at already, which made it an exciting and humbling failure. got the move immediately after falling but didnt go for the send

nice and wandery climb but with a dirty finish

The first 3/4 of the route are very nice and interesting wall climbing, which feel ok for the 6c grade. However, then you reach what the guidebook calls “an interesting bulge”, which I think rather is a small roof. This section felt far harder than the rest of the route and quite impossible for me. Even aiding through it, as I had to do, was not so easy due to a bit awkward bolt placement. Since I did not freeclimb the route, I am not really in a position to talk about the grade, but it felt quite a bit harder than 6c for me.

One steep, pumpy jugfest!

Currently, all the jugs were excessively tickmarked by someone, which makes onsighting kind of impossible.

Inhomogeneous route. Up to the last bolt, it’s approx. 5b, then you have two hard moves on flowstone to the top. Bolt placement is a bit awkward and maybe a bit wide sometimes. Bolts are beginning to corrode.

Sharp!

Really enjoyed this. First few metres are a bit sharp and awkward untill you get to the clean orange rock under the capping roof. Them it's lovely technical steep off vertical climbing.

Worthwhile. It's a little run out, and there is a closely bolted route just to the right that detracts, as when it feels run out, there is a bolt a metre to the right on the other line that confuses the issue.

Super!! Super hard at the crux which i pulled pass and its so sustained!

So cool, pretty thrilling!

Tough for the grade, but super cool!

The boulder on this required a good lock off and a long reach which felt pretty challenging for the grade but overall it's an excellent climb.

Super nice although quite run out

Dont we all want to extend our happiness?!

Was very happy with my flash, until I checked my logbook and saw I tried this a few years ago

First OS in this grade!!! 🎉

First go today! Easier when fresh. Changed up the crux foot beta on the fly and found myself further away from the big jug than last time, but kept my head together and got it done. [4]

Three burns, fell on the last move of the crux (foot slipped) on the last attempt. Grrrr, so close. Really excellent moves.

Fall on the last moove !

Very hard with the upper half being wet

Same start as sunrise

The rooflet that defeated me...

Kat is a machine!

Thanks for the draws, Jochen.

Soft

Some soil excavation required to improve quality.

Sharp slab with bolts a little spread for my liking, followed by a flow stone finish which was very wet. Not that much to recommend.

#2go Nice varying climbing with a tougher than expected little roof to deal with.

Sweeps quite far out to the right, where the jugs collect a lot of mud and vegetation. Okay but defintely not 3 stars!

More face climbing. Sweet.

Cool long pitch. Good warm up for the harder routes, but some prickly holds detract.

Got a bit scared trying to climb the start where the Topo shows it going. No bolts and a 10m ground fall didn't appeal, so retreated. Turns out the route angles in from 10m to the right. Great climbing in the top 10 metres.

Very pumpy and slippery feet.

Doesnt look like much, but climbs spectacularly at the grade! Thoroughly recommended.

Bwah. Tough and greasy in todays conditions, but a great (and demanding) line! The traverse and finale is quite gripping

The sort of route I'd love to be able to spend real time on. Pure classic. Technical, insecure lower half on thin tufas; an outrageous powerful and foot-free traverse; and a demanding crux finale. One of the best routes I tried in Kaly.

Went quite easily today in good conditions. A great route with two awesome lower crux sequences, but probably not hard for the grade.

Two interesting and opposite cruxes, but a bit too sharp to be a real treat.
