Route Info

The route starts by climbing the rightmost edge accessible on foot. It's hundreds of vertical meters with almost no footholds—just a couple of rest spots—where you'll need to work your way up using whatever edges you can grip. After several vertical sections, traverse slightly left and continue climbing the available holds until you reach one of the two crux sections with long moves, where you'll need to use your pitons wisely to reach the next zone. Then comes a horizontal traverse to the left leading to the second long-move crux until you can grab the edge. From there, follow the diagonal ascent to reach the final rest spot, with only 5-10 vertical meters remaining.

Note: This route is tricky—you'll need to practice it. Some edges look grabbable but aren't, and some holds are almost invisible. Completing it requires a certain skill.

Good luck to anyone brave enough to attempt it.
