I climbed the original line ("Alter Weg Variante in the old guide books") from right to left. The tension traverse into the alcove with the book was difficult to do without aid, I traversed a bit further and downclimbed the overhang. Book was soaked, unfortunately. Traverses further left into "Südwestkante".

I don't think I've ever climbed this difficulty in an absolutely wet state. I cheated only very slightly by placing a towel in a hold and grabbing the hold through the towel to increase the friction a bit because it was so slimy from wet chalk that it was impossible to hold on to.

A long traverse that is listed in a "best of free climbing" list in Boulder magazine from the early 80s. Indeed a good line and a delightful adventure. Rock quality is mediocre in places and the options for natural protection are limited, though.

Going directly to the last bolt is quite awesome, but requires a lot more balls than going left to the prominent knob, but the detour feels like off route due to the "coffee" route to the left which was added much later. :-/

8 8- Hersbrucker Weg - with Merlin Sport 27m Good
Quite hard for the grade, or maybe it's just the humidity. Tough sequence after the second bolt, left out the third. From there it's easier, but the rock is (still, I must say, the lower part wasn't exactly bulletproof) brittle and some care is necessary. From the big ledge, there are some good pockets, but I almost got desperate towards the end. Apparently the upper part is 7-; I somehow doubt it, but maybe I didn't get it right.

8+ Das Letzte Hemd - with Ellen Sport 36m Classic
Finally sent this king line. My last attempt earlier this year really paid off, even though I remembered the beta only schematically. This was also the first time I tried the direct start via "Taschenspieler", which adds around 8 to 10 meters of technical wall climbing. The conditions were also perfect, so the middle section felt pretty safe (also, there's an old peg that I hadn't seen before which helps a bit). Brilliant slab dance to the crux as always. Shook out shortly, then started into the bouldery passage. The hold for my left hand felt somehow wrong, but I knew I wouldn't get the chance to readjust, so I just put my right foot up high onto the important foothold I remembered, and pressed up into the undercling. After this I felt quite fresh, so I knew I could make it if I kept my shit together, which I apparently did. The finish felt secure and calm, I wasn't even too pumped when I reached the anchor.

8- Affenschaukel - with Bovist Sport 30m Classic
Climbed the route along a line more true to the original given in old guidebooks by traversing left in the steepest part of "Seifertriss". Climbed freely, the traverse leads slightly upwards instead of down, so the rope runs smoothly if you leave out the first bolt after reaching the crack of Affenschaukel. Funnily enough, this variant felt almost better than what is most climbed nowadays because it leaves out the steep, greasy boulder and replaces it with sustained, overhanging pocket climbing in the traverse.

"Quick" dip during lunch break. Not claiming an onsight because I knew most of the route, of course. Although some parts always feel new, and tough each and every time, even the crux of "Südwestkante" which I last did only three months past (I guess it's the intimidating slab clip standing on slanted footholds with only a shallow mono pocket for the left hand). The only "new" part for me was the traverse after the roof (the latter worked out nicely today). I first climbed up the crack to get a long sling into the bolt, then tried to traverse slightly too high. Had to backtrack, climb down a bit and traverse directly above the lip. Great slab moves there!

Would have climbed "Bruder Jakob", but that was full of snow due to the many ledges, so this one had to serve as a #warmup. Quite tough to get to the first bolt in these conditions, from then on it was nice and warm, but difficult with wet shoes.

8 Jungwirth Gedenkweg - with KP Sport 18m, 7 Good
Didn't feel much easier than last time, but I had more juice left. Definitely somewhere in the 8th grade UIAA. The traverse past the third bolt is tough, especially because there are barely any footholds for the left foot once you've managed to stand up into the dihedral. The middle part is brilliant jug hauling along big razor flakes, which fortunately are still quite solid. Something that is not true for the start (sandy as hell) and for some holds in the upper traverse. The jug that you pull on once you've made your way out of the roof (sharp left!) doesn't make a good impression. Good rest before the final few meters, but those alone could already be harder than 7+, I guess.

Belvedere Sector B
6b Via Del Biscotto - with Bovist Sport 24m Good
Just tried this because I failed here years ago, and now I know why. The route in itself is beautiful, but even for 6b, it's terribly hard. The crux section, quite high up, is a tough, almost bouldery wall climbing problem which also relies a bit on friction -- on totally greased up holds. Luckily, the sun was already setting and I got through the lower part without sweating a lot, so I could quickly breeze through that part. Didn't lose my cool when I suddenly stood there in the slab, not having anything sensible to hold on to, either, so I could ignore the urge to clip the bolt in front of my eyes and instead climb on for another two moves to the safety of a jug. Hard!

Can't call this an onsight since I knew most of the route. Also, it's quite hard to find the place where you go to the right. I probably missed the point and traversed in from a bit higher up. I think I like the left-hand variant better, since you don't have to crawl up the chossy ledge. Both variants are impressive routes, though. I still think the crux is at the third bolt.

8+ Ostwand - with Ellen Sport 20m Very Good
Quite a hard boulder up to the second bolt (used to be easier, a hold supposedly broke). You can probably clip the first one, but falling into it would be a bit nasty, so it's best to pre-clip the second. Beautiful wall climbing on small pockets from the second bolt up to the overhang, then it suddenly gets really strenuous again. Quite a few tricky moves in the end, I was lucky that my final crossover move ended up in a monstrous jug, otherwise I would have dropped off just below the anchor. (Flashed the upper part, had to do the boulder at the bottom two or three times.)
