Chak-bawi 책바위 is granite rock that offers pleasant slab climbs. Recently, a local climbing club developed two new routes. There is a lot of potential for traditional climbs between the existing routes. It faces south.
Description

Descent notes
Gear 10 draws, a 60m rope, a set of cams, and extra webbing. Additional Comments Unfortunately, it is hard to get accurately documented route beta. This crag is 100m high and 80m wide with low-angled slab climbing on granite rock.There are a few unknown routes that had been put up when I went in November 2011. Grades are assumed to be ranging from 5.9 to 5.11 in di culty. There are good opportunities to develop climbs around Chak-bawi. Trees, in the middle of routes, will give you a great rest point and belay spot.
