Routes in Asia for selected grade

FFA: Saurabh C.

A fun cave-like overhang area with a notable crack and pushy heelhooks around. There are several problems here, including potential for someone to bushwhack the top, set up an anchor and rope down for some bolt placement on the highest parts.

Offwidth

An epic lead by Amrit Appadan supposed by Iniyan Sivaneri bumping up #5 and #6 for a fair distance.

Offwidth crack

The crack starts to the right on the south facing wall, as a hand crack, traverses left and opens up into the crux off-width. Past the offwidth, further short traverse to the left as hand crack and then along a flake and then the heady but easy top- out.

Rack: Upto #4, or #5 (optional).

Anchor: Crack (Finger and hand cracks)

Natural Anchor: Boulder and tree. Long anchor.

The second biggest cove area, directly near the port and ship docking area (http://kko.to/pRLchd7fj). A strong traverse with sharp crimps make a splendid workout.

Left of Louvre, apparently, a stiffer 5.11ish route that was climbed as a top rope route from the tree that marks the end of the Louvre first pitch.

Philip Coquard & Dominic Danard.(1989)

The boulder evidently attempted to be quarried provides for a crack, that runs diagonally. The crack is formed by the outer rock overlapping the inner boulder , starts as a finger crack and widens to fist and half size towards the top.

Mildly overhanging and lacking in footholds, the crack eases up only after the crack turns vertical, and flares wider to allow some foot jams.

Rack: Finger sized cams all the way upto #4 BD Cam-sized pieces.

Top Anchor: Cracks that allow finger sized and hand-sized gear. Best to use tricams to avoid the cams getting bent.

Stiff crimpy first 20 feet and then couple of cuxy sections to the top out.

Rachit Singhvi figured out the moves.

Same top-anchor as Angulimala***

A finger and hand crack that runs horizontally to the right and then connects through a series of horizontal cracks to the top

Easy to protect, stiff climb

Aided my way up and then attempted to project

Exit: Mid-way through to the right (east), a tree allows you to rap off back to the base. Tree on the west face as well.

Rack: Doubles of #.3 through #.75 and nuts of similar size or below. Preferably off sets.

Anchor: Cracks and tree (Halfway up to the right)

Natural Anchor: Tree

Take off on the jug, and then the feature that was useful to make moves further broke.

7b+ if climbed along the bolts, 7a if you use the arete on the left.

Here it's 6c.

For the first 8 meters there is an offwidth that swallows two #5 and one #6 camalots. The crack then narrows and disappears, leaving you in a corner with a couple of pockets for cams. To get down, rappel from a big block on a ledge or climb a 3-meter step and walk down on foot.

7b if you climb directly over the overlap. Around 6b if you climb the crack.

Technical, bouldery climbing.

Just R of SJ up hanging corner finish at same anchor as SJ

Start as for EK and keep going above ledge. Overhanging sustained and exposed.

Easier variation to the intermediate anchor. Nowadays there isn't a real anchor point to pass the rope through to back to the ground, just a two bolts. Shares the finish with 'Mantally Ill P1'.

1. Climb the slab. 6c, 30m, 10 bolts

2. Vertical wall and slabs 7a/+, 25m, 9 bolts.

Starts on a gentle slab 10-15m right of Surpriz.

Top has two anchors for lowering. One is a chemical bolt and another is an expansion bolt with ring.

Video. First graded È5 6a.

Same start as Quarry Story.

Start approx 5 meters to the right of Prelude.

Sit-start matched on edge of Boulder, traverse left using edges, slopers, heel hooks. Top-out slight past high bulge.

Compress the stunning arete feature. Start in a low sit start.

Topo.

Left side of the rock.

#SD Crux at the top.

横移线，顶部岩面只有翻顶可用

"一百"左边的小烟囱，从里面最低的两个好脚点起步，一路撑出来翻顶。和在黎明爬传统的朋友们互动一下。

5.11d on some old route list. In the route tag at the start of route reads 5.12a now. It must have been upgraded.

Warm up on the right of No name (steep), start from the left, the grade depends on how far you traverse to the right

Opened by Lopsang Thisring, Kamalesh & other members of 'The Climbers' in 1987 during IMF All India Camp.

Shares two clips with Kuya Muscle before moving slightly R and then up the steep wall. Tricky crux comes late, keep straight, on the left of the bulge.

Shared anchor with Lea's B-Day.

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.

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.

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.

Shares 3 bolts with the next 2 routes, traverse L at 3rd bolt to gain feature.

Technical vertical route.

Second crack line from the right in Domes area.

The Climb has two hard boulder problems separated by a massive ledge in the middle to rest. The FA was made without using the tree, but the grade might hold even if the tree is used.

Roof crack

On the same boulder as Higher Than Noon and to the right of the west facing main crack. Through the roof.
