线路 in Middle East for selected grade

Vertical.

An alternative route to "Ras Khalili" without doing the overhang, shares same anchor.

Straight up the column, cramped exit. Not that easy for the grade.

Feels harder than the 5c+ around the corner.

Climbing into the bush and to the left of the bolts. Adapted from the Russian Bear route to its right.

Starts where the path arrives at the rock. Just left of the bigger tree growing out of the rock.

Nice demanding start, easy after the 4th bolt!

Approach up Wadi S. Bach Pitch numbers a bit different than the TH guide book

1. f5 - 50m Start between the block and the wall, head right to the flake and gain the ramp. Belay on big ledge, there is a bolt about 5m to the right.

2. Walk to the right about 20m, stop at the red wall just before the small roof system starts, still on the main face. You can see some features of P4

3. f5 - Slab a bit run out, belay on a big ledge. (possible to link with P4 stopping just short of the tree ledge). Variation pitch: The wall just 8m right of the bolt-belay (along a fixed sling which you can see from the belay) to the big ledge. Same grade (f5), better belay.

4. f5+ - Vertical crack, this might also be broken up into 2 pitches. Big abseil tree is to the right can end here or carry on. Ropes on tree look a bit old, but okay (tested 02/2023).

5. f5 - The grey slab in front of the big tree. Other topos say no gear but marginal cams can be placed, BD4 used.

6. (A short walk to the left before the start of this pitch.) f5, up the crack, physical, laybacks and jams

7. f5+ up the crack, physical, a mantel, slopey laybacks and jams, tough for the grade (possible option to swing out left on the face rather than direct

8. f3

9. f3

Descent:

Rappel Down the route, then either - repel to the big tree and repels into couloir. - or repels down the main face to the start (one being 60m to the bolt at the top of the 1st pitch).

Topos: Howard guidebook #25.

Difficult technical start, then enjoy the long run.

Just a few meters to the right of Lodos on expansion bolts. Starts just left of the tree going to a big undercling flake and meanders the way up high.

a body in chimney

missing 1st bolt

Up along the long crack in the corner behind the tree. Be careful with a bunch of hollow flakes and blocks at mid height.

Another great route up the edge of the overhang.

Start at the undercut area at the left of the crag. Trend up and right. Difficult move, especially for the short, at third height. Then straight forward climbing to the top.

Glue-in bolts all the way...

Goldfinger goes up the small pillar that resembles a hand giving the finger, in the middle of the east face of Jebel Rum.

No belays are bolted.

P1: Start up the cracks up and right along to a belay below the obvious crack and chimney (5a, 55m), Build your own anchor.

P2: Climb the finger crack to a big ledge (6a, 35m) (5+ if you know how to finger jam), build your own anchor.

P3: Climb up and left in a corner and proceed further to the very top of the Goldfinger pillar(5b, 20m).

Descent in four rappels down the left (Troubadour) side of the pillar. Rapps on this side are bolted

Convoluted and unbalanced route. A bouldery start, then traverse left and finish up what used to be a VDiff trad chimney.

1st pitch 8 bolts, 2nd pitch 11 bolts.

Fun and adventurous along big blocks.

Climb the crack in between Crack for Cheese and Middle Finger.

The obvious crack in the north face of Abu Maileh Tower. Approach up Wadi S.Bach. A little harder than the guidebook grades.

1. Scramble up to a ledge with big boulders.

2. Awkward moves into a cave, pull through overhang with good holds.

3. Two grovely corners.

4. Slab then layback on sandy open holds.

Descent: 2 rappels, 50m each, down the right side of the route. 1st from big boulder on the right. 2nd from belay at the top of pitch 2.

Topo: Howard guidebook #28.

Nice short route at left end of the magnificent East Face of East Dome. Pleasant climbing in cracks and good rock with satisfactory protection. Descent by abseil on the route, take care ropes are jamming.

P1: Start the rip left of the little cave. 2-bolt-belay at ledge or combine with next pitch.

P2: Follow the corner crack sytem. Sling belay left of the ledge (for abseiling) or more comfortable gear belay at the ledge.

P3: Follow the crack, sling belay.

P4: Crux pitch, hard for 5+. Sling belay.

P5: Left leaning corner to the end.

Six bolts to shared anchors with Centipede.

Located on the big block up in the corridor on the left.

"It depends" - if you start from right is 5b if you start from left is 5c. A couple of steep pulls gain easy ground.

Right of the hole, the one obvious easy climb.

#bolt_type_glue_in

Canavar is a glorious sport route that starts 1 meter right from Kurabiye. Pull a tricky bulge on a slightly overhanging rock with good holds for the first half of the climb. Continue straight up the wall on a shiny line of bolts that will lead you up an incredibly featured wall.

Location Canavar is located 3.5 meters right from the two large pine trees growing at the base of the cliff that marks the start of the sector.

Protection 9 bolts, 2 bolt anchor

Asidos's, chemically bolted

A popular slabby route. The name comes from the nature of the movements, stretching hands and feet as a lizard. It can be climbed either direct to the top at 6b+ (recommended) or by darting rock to the crack at about 2/3 height.

Similar to Alecram but slightly harder. Climb up the pocketed slab and shares the last few bolts with Alecram and finishes at the same anchor
