攀登 in 瑞士 by mike

Maybe went a bit too far left at the crux?

Varied.

Actually wanted to climb the harder variant but did not really look at the topo...

Juggy & athletic. Nice route. Great view from the top.

A real beauty. Varied. Technical start, then quite athletic for a bit.

Not a great route - at least 1st pitch. 2nd looked promising though.

Quite stiff.

Crux is right above the first belay above a ledge. If you're not confident, it may be a good idea to climb it in two pitches...

Clipping 3rd bolt is super sketchy and off balance. Not sure how to ssfely do that.

Needed a bit of work...

...but sent it on 2nd go.

Really beautiful route with an athletic crux in the lower part, some easier climbing further up and then a beautiful technical crux before traversing to the finish which is a bit weird...

Rep.

Doable. Nice dynamic crux move.

Nicht soooo deftig.

Rep.

Really hard and sketchy to second bolt. Some stemming to the left and clipping from a weird position was needed in the end. Had a bit of trouble to read sequence at third bolt, too, but ended up rather easy. Rest significantly easier.

The sequence for getting from the clip-position of the first bolt to the third bolt is really hard for the grade and involves a bit of a sketchy clip of the second bolt - which is extended with a chain.

Actually I think it's harder than the first pitch of "Kurz aber deftig".

Managed to do the crux, but for some unknown reason slipped in an easier move further up. 😞

Finally managed to do it - even found easier beta. Made me like the route better.

Delicate and technical moves to the 2nd bolt. Rest easier. Ends with nice slabby technical climbing.

Slipped 😞

2nd pitch is really cool and offers varied climbing. First quite technical on slab to dihedral, then rather athletic for a bit and then a nice left-traverse before the end.

Unfortunately messed up the steeper middle part. Left foot should have been set higher so it is easier to get up to next bolt and place right foot on good footholds in the right wall.

Probably soft.

Need to better sort out the feet...

Right exit variant. The left variant probably checks out at about the same difficulty.

There's no way that this could be a 6c.

The cruxes in pitches 2, 6 and 10 cost us some time. Especially the move in pitch 6 has to be done above to bolt and is a delicate move with not-so-good underclings and nothing to stand on. I ended up aiding it with the help of a camalot #1...

Up to pitch 9 the route is well bolted. In pitch 10 there are some 5b-ish moves at the beginning of the pitch that would result in a ground-fall when done wrong and further up there is a delicate slab (5c-ish) that has to be safely climbed if you don't want to fall 10m...

The bolts are set a bit weirdly. So in the slab on the first pitch, there is a somewhat delicate travese to the third bolt - slipping there would result in a ground fall.

The third pitch on the other hand could be easily protected with gear, but there are enough bolts (and "friends forever") so it's not really necessary.

The crux is an undercling move with almost nothing to stand on.
