Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Rook Area | |||||
{FR} 7a | Unknown #1
Route starting with a black hanger bolt, at the far left, goes around the corner. Walk around the boulder, being careful not to fall off the cliff, then a bolt is in reach before you start climbing the overhang. | ||||
{FR} 6b | ★★ Veranda
Second route from the left, silver bolts, starts on top of the boulder. | ||||
{FR} 6c | ★★ Picnic
Third route from the left/looks like older not so shiny bolts | ||||
{FR} 6a+ | ★★ With All Due Respect
Forth route from the left, goes up the left side of the tufa | ||||
{FR} 6a+ | ★★ Unknown #5
Route fifth from the left, starts up the right side of the tufa | ||||
{FR} 6a | ★★ Unknown #6
Sixth route from the left, up the slab and reach to clip two bolts, then one hard move to get past the overhang, into much easier terrain. | ||||
{FR} 5c | ★★ Screwdriver
Newly bolted, seems like it used to be top rope only. | ||||
{FR} 5a | Unknown #7
Black bolts right of screwdriver | ||||
5.10b | ★★ Show Boulevard
FA: Show Suzuki | 12m | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban El Kanto | |||||
5.12d FR:7c | ★★★ White Streak
Starts EK 2nd pitch so trad needed to get up there or climb No Left Turn on El Torre FA: Simon Sandoval, 1998 | 12m, 5 | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Torre Wall | |||||
FR:7a | Gaijin
Approach via the ledge on top of NLT and traverse about 10m R to the base of the climb. Alternately hike to Boogie Wall and scramble down to the rappel anchors and abseil to the base of the route. FA: Dennis Diaz, Gax Ilanan & Simon Sandoval, 1999 | 22m, 11 | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Banzai Wall | |||||
FR:6a+ | ★★ Unknown
Nice new warm up, needs some more cleaning. | 13m, 6 | |||
FR:7c+ | ★ Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Tricky crux around the 10th bolt. Set: Miel Pahati, 2017 | 26m, 11 | |||
FR:7b | ★★ Pitch 2
Second Pitch to CTHD. Cruxy 2 bolts from the top. Lower down from here, if you don't want to do the hike back down/ | 8 | |||
FR:6c+ | Pitch 3
Third Pitch to CTHD. Via the stalactite at the top of the main wall. | ||||
FR:7b | ★★ Groove
An area classic bolted in the 90's. Shares first 3 bolts with CTHD, then traverses right onto the slab. Pumpy up the tuffa, crux on the face. Can also be climbed as first pitch to CTHD. There is a harder variation, starting slightly to the right, an unfinished project (named "Mirror" - for a reason). | 24m, 11 | |||
FR:6c | Haiku
Crimpy at the start, pumpy at the top. Set: Bubut Tan-Torres, 1996 | 20m, 7 | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Slayer Wall | |||||
5.11d FR:7a | ★★ Destruction
Shares 3 bolts with the next 2 routes, traverse L at 3rd bolt to gain feature. | 18m, 11 | |||
FR:6c | Unnamed
Ends at the same anchors of Destruction. | 18m, 7 | |||
FR:7c/c+ | ★★★ Warhammer
Climb Destruction to its 10th bolt before stepping R and powering up 'till the route meets with Slayer. Climb through the steep traverse going L towards the obvious stalactite. Keep going L past the stalactite to finish onto the grey prow. There's a small move R then up L to the anchors. The slightly easier variation to the route is to start on Slayer instead of Destruction. Set: Dennis Diaz & Jordi Esquis FA: Miel Pahati, 10 Jan 2016 | 22m, 14 | |||
FR:8a | ★★★ Dragonlance
Follow Warhammer but do not step L of the stalactite. Go up and R from the stalactite where Warhammer breaks off to gain a huge slopey ledge then go straight up to finish. Set: Dennis Diaz & Jordi Esquis FA: Dennis Diaz, 21 Jan 2017 | 25m, 15 | |||
5.11b FR:6c+ | ★★★ Slayer
This consistently overhanging jug-fest does not go without a pump. It's right smack in the middle of the wall and is not to be missed. If its reputation as the super-mega-classic of the area isn't enough to get you to climb it nothing will. Also its the best warm-up route in the area. FA: Ilanan & Imao, 1996 | 20m, 11 | |||
5.12b FR:7b | ★★★ Dragon Slayer
This extension to Slayer continues past the stalactite above it for another 3 bolts. Don't be put off by the seemingly short addition. The tricky transition from Slayer to Dragon Slayer can be interesting. Be careful when lowering make sure you have atleast 50m of rope. | 22m, 13 | |||
5.11d FR:7a+ | Dragon Shit
Climb the first 4 bolts of Slayer then move R. Interesting and challenging. | 23m, 11 | |||
5.12b FR:7b+ | ★★ Delirium aka "Despidida"
Technical and thin. Has an alternate 2 bolt L hand finish to 2 rings that is rarely done. FA: Guerrero, Simon Sandoval & Gax Ilanan | 15m, 9 | |||
5.13c FR:8a+ | ★★ Valhalla
Starts about 4m R of DP. Follow the slopers and slimpers up the wall. Can be finger numbing. Be prepared for some major crimping. (Key hold broke off, upping the grade to a possible 8b?) Set: Miel Pahati FA: Miel Pahati | 20m, 9 | |||
5.11d | Dos Pistados
Start on the ledge L of the cave on the far R. Follow the line that traverses R and up to the top. | 22m, 9 | |||
5.12c FR:7c | Climber in a Hole
Start in the opening to the R of Slayer Wall . Follow the bolts along the ceiling to the chain. FA: Mackie Mackinano & Simon Sandoval, 2000 | 10m, 11 | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Uling Wall | |||||
5.8 | Early Bird
Located on the gray slab on the very far L of the entire Upper Uling Wall. Good for starting a slow day at Uling. | 12m, 6 | |||
5.9 | Gax
Left of Early Bird. A bit more of a challenge, specially without breakfast. | 15m, 6 | |||
5.12c FR:7b+ | ★★ 3 Stitches
The original test piece in the area. A bouldery power fest named after its crux. Be careful with the somewhat high first clip and the move after the last clip - ground fall potential. Avoid the lower boulder on the left to get the full benefit of the experience. Set: Simon Sandoval FA: Simon Sandoval | 12m, 3 | |||
FR:7c/c+ | Volcanic Bank
| ||||
5.10 | ★★★ Uunnggghh
Follows the large claustrophobic crack on the R of 3 Stitches. Good intro into off-width climbing. Definitely something delightfully different if you like squeezing yourself into tight spaces. An adventure climb on its own. FA: Lex Evangalista | 14m, 4 | |||
5.10d FR:6b+ | ★★ Sleeping Jaguar
Steep gymnastic fun with a bit of a tricky start. | 25m, 9 | |||
5.12a FR:7a | ★★ Dirty Mind
Just R of SJ up hanging corner finish at same anchor as SJ | 25m, 8 | |||
5.12b FR:7b | ★★★ Sandman
R hand curving route to finish at anchors for Powder. Plan your clips well or end up with terrible rope drag. Set: Simon Sandoval FA: Dennis Diaz & Simon Sandoval, 1999 | 25m, 8 | |||
5.11 FR:6c | ★★ Powder
Steep good long fun weaving through a series of tufas and stalactites. FA: Gax, Mackie & Sandoval, 1999 | 25m, 7 | |||
5.7 | ★★ SMB - San Miguel Beer
Up the juggy Tufas and stalactites 2m L of Warlock. 3 bolts, 2 threads. | 15m, 5 | |||
5.11+ FR:6c+ | ★ Warlock
Follow bolts up to anchors just L of Cafe De Wawa. | 20m, 6 | |||
{FR} 6a | ★★ Dinuguan at Puto
Currently the easiest route in this sector of Uling. Name is because of a loose rock that fell on the FA’s head that caused a bloody split. FA: TJ Isla | ||||
{FR} 6b | Cape’t dinuguan
Starts on 'Cafe De Wawa' 1st crux and ends after the cave rest on dinuguan’s anchor. FA: Danep | ||||
5.11b FR:6b+ | ★★ Cafe De Wawa
Crag classic with a bit of everything thrown in, jams, pockets, Tufas and jugs. Can be extended to anchor of SMB. Similar difficulty. FA: Ilanan, Mackie & Sandoval, 1999 | 20m, 8 | |||
5.10c FR:6b/b+ | ★ Rainy Season
Follow cracks and tufa up face to anchors just L of Mars Attacks, 4 bolt, 1 thread. 6b+ variation is a 3 bolt addition starting low on the tufas left of Ina Flores. Climb up and L using the tufas on the face and connect a bit higher up Rainy Season. For an even longer variation, instead of connecting to Rainy Season, stitch together with Cafe De Wawa and finish on SMB's anchors. Set: Jordi Esquis & Dennis Diaz FA: Dennis Diaz | 20m, 5 | |||
5.8 | ★ Mars Attacks
A quality easier end route on this wall. Some cool holds on really nice white rock. 4 bolts, 1 thread. Feels more like 5.10a/6a. | 15m, 5 | |||
5.10c FR:6b | ★ Ina Flores
Follow crack on R of Mars Attacks and then bolts up R on face. A very interesting line with moves quite different from the usual Uling style right on the second half of the climb. 5 bolts, one sling. Set: Xtian Guerrero & Gax Ilanan, 2016 FA: Gax Ilanan, 2016 | 20m, 5 | |||
5.9 | ★★ Born Again
Fun jugging to a hand jam finish, love the hidden gym style thread jug. FA: Ybanez | 15m, 5 | |||
5.11d FR:7a | Stranded Cowboy
Follow the bolts up the crack immediately R of BA and around the big high stalactite that you can cowboy onto before the cruxy L to the anchors. 6bish until then. Unfortunately, crux holds tend to be wet an mossy... Bring along sling to protect the middle, wouldn't trust the old one there. | 25m, 10 | |||
{FR} 6b+ | ★★★ TNG
A long route with flat holds and pinches to start. Ends on a ledge split to a tufa. Crux is the pump. Named TNG: “Tufa ni George” or something more juvenile if you want because of the end tufa. FA: George Silvederio | ||||
5.10b FR:6a+ | ★★ Sunday School
Start about 4m right of SC, stay left of the big tufa, then traverse slightly right past the anchor of Bayawak and continue all the way up on the left side of the overhang. Nice exposure on the last moves onto the face to reach the anchor. FA: Nana Araneta, Simon Sandoval, Gax Ilanan & Dennis Diaz, 1998 | 25m, 13 | |||
FR:6a+ | ★★ Bayawak
Same start as Sunday School, but stay on the right of the tufa. Crux just before the anchor. Can also be continued to the top of SS, same difficulty. | 18m, 7 | |||
FR:6a | ★★ Bituka
The alternative start to Bayawak, starting under the cornflaky tufa? Grade to be confirmed. FA: Nana Araneta, Buddy Advincula, Simon Sandoval & Digoy Araneta, 2000 | 20m, 8 | |||
5.10d FR:6b | ★ Bulaklak
Recently rebolted line on the right of the cornflakey tufa. Pretty mossy at the moment, but with some interesting moves. Grade to be confirmed. FA: Sandoval & Advincula, 2000 | 20m, 10 | |||
5.11d FR:7a | ★ PULP fiction
Start as for DBPP just L of the black crack. Follow DBPP for the first 3 bolts but continue directly up the wide white crack and Tufas on L above. FA: Miel Pahati, 2016 | 22m, 9 | |||
5.11d FR:7a | ★ DBPP
Dirty Black Pumping?? Technical startBoulder just up L of the crack down R of Bulaklak, move R at the break and make a big move off the undercling, around the R side of the stalactite and up to the anchors. | 18m, 7 | |||
{FR} 7c+ | ★★ Django
The steep wall R of DBPP to join NIR. The start is a V8 Boulder into some more pumpy climbing. Currently cannot be climbed due to bamboo kiosk below. FA: Miel Pahati, Mar 2016 | 15m, 8 | |||
5.12c FR:7b+ | ★★★ Nights in Rizal
An old route, rebolted that was left unfinished by Dennis, Gax and Simon. Still a project. The bolts heading diagonally L across the tufas to the lovely whit rock at crack up the head wall. Currently cannot be climbed due to bamboo kiosk below. FA: Dennis Diaz & Miel Pahati Set: Matt Brooks & Dennis Diaz | 10m, 9 | |||
Metro Manila Wawa - Montalban Boogie Wall | |||||
5.8 FR:5b | ★★ Boogie - 1
First on the left. A juggy slab with some cool and some sharp holds. Great beginner route but watch rope length when you lower and tie a not in the end of your rope as its about 31m so a 60m rope will only just make it. | 30m, 16 | |||
5.10a FR:6a | Unnamed - 2
The second on the left. Starts below the overhang, then traverses left. Careful clipping clip 4. Huge (grounder) runout after that, but easy climbing. | 30m | |||
5.11a FR:6c | Unnamed - 3
Tough through the roof | 25m | |||
5.9 FR:5c | Unnamed - 4
The left route on the slab on the right. Careful big loose rock two-thirds up. | 15m, 8 | |||
5.10a FR:6a | Unnamed - 5
Last on the right. Technical top. | 18m | |||
