Description

Lots of moves on positive holds.

Up the little "ridge" in the center of the gully, next trend to the left side of gully, then exit left onto face and up that.

name

: Route in the "moderate" sector of the Gimmelwald sport-climbing area in Switzerland.

warning

: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

FA first ascent? The listing of a Top-Rope first ascent does not imply that top-roping is the "appropriate" style for this route. If some party bolts this route and leads it and supplies a careful description of the size and metal-composition of the bolts and hangers - (by posting an Improve This Page or a Comment below) -- they wlll be given first-rank FA on this page. Also they can supply their own name for this climb (which is why currently this route has just some odd name copied from a crag in another country, awaiting installation of hardware).

Location

In the upper part of this sector.

Below the wide broken-rock gully with light yellow-orange face to its left and low overhang and low roof to its right.

Protection

No fixed hardware for top anchor or for leading.

Top-Roping: For ideas about how to get access to set up top anchor,

see the Area description page for this sector 2 Robinson

.

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
