Purdy good for an eliminate! I have to tape my wrist for the undercling, have hard/stiff shoes for the best results. Took so much microbeta and to get it all right. But managed to do it 20+ degrees heat with some management. It's all my weaknesses and I'm not quite tall enough to make any of the parts much easier - but could add another + to difficulty for that. Much harder than the 7B I've done and the 7B+ I almost sent in a session 😅 Took so many sessions, so close so many times.

2nd go? I don't remember if I've tried it before

Top rope solo. Harder than Hydrokefalus :m This didn't feel much different mentally than with pads, I still couldn't take a fall at the last crux but at least I didn't have to worry so much about blowing my knees to smithereens. Physically a lot effin harder faffing about with the rope and having to take slack in awkward positions 😅 Well, I guess it's good endurance-ish training.

Finally, jesus 😂

Last moves are the crux, quite a good climb and surprisingly hard :) (if you're bad at crimps)

Do not climb in hot sun

....not a good problem

Retro flash I guess :) First go today and really difficult a long time ago to put the start together.

Nice but sharp

2nd go

Did it as ss, doesn't really make it harder but my beta was nice and flowy :)

Makes a lot more sense than the eliminate and coming back to that seems stupid 😅😂 But it's missing one crux from the 7A+ variation and seems pretty close to the same difficulty unless your wingspan is like 190cm. Although the crux move is pretty hard as well if you're not super tall. But for shorties an impossible route? First moves require quite a long wingspan I think? I'm 180 and maybe 170 is still okay depending on monkey index. But shorter and shorter...not sure how you'd climb this. Would be awesome to see though!

Sharp

Easier than Lipton, the topout as well

Ehhh, not a good problem

I dunno what exactly are the start holds? Seems a bit forced, and no obvious toehook unless you're over 2 meters tall 😅 Just a shitty slopey edge that did manage to stick a little bit. Did find that a kneebar beta is also probably possible and might make the route a lot easier 🤔 Kind of fun but also forced.

Hard to say what grade, a bit crimpy but doesn't feel like 6C though. Maybe harder if you're shorter? But then the crimps are probably better than they were for me 😅 High left foot in the beginning and locking off to the good crimps in the beginning, then weird bumping from hold to hold (siders/crimps/gaston) until finally able to topout and get the foot up for the last bit. That could be harder for shorter? Seemed a bit morpho for me and I was pretty extended to catch a really good hold and I'm 180cm so...hard to say. But at my current climbing level, I don't think it can be 6C. But could be for a certain body type/size? 😅 Anyway, I digress. But seems esier than maybe some 6As I've climbed.

Not much harder than the starting routes but nicer but hard to say where the lines exactly goes....

Bit sandbagged start but doesn't feel like 6A

Climbed it a long time ago, some reason ticking hasn't worked. Today again in approach shoes.

2 big moves in the start but all good holds, doesn't feel at all like 6C. Maybe for veeery short is harder.

First go bailed a bit to the left at the end because of MÄHMÄ and my waist chalkbag was closed 😂😭 So 2nd go and I guess we topped a bit hard way to the right because not exactly sure what is maybe eliminated at the end. But kinda nice. Slightly bad landing with one crashpad. Probably a nice crag with good friction.

Found a reaally nice beta that is quality climbing :)

Seems kinda hard

Definitely 7A for shorter people but a bit easier for tall climbers. Recommend double pads and good spotting. Double pads = safe to fall from the very top more or less, maybe a flubber/thin pad for the slab in the very beginning if you don't feel secure. Nice rock quality and holds, moves are equally pleasant/hard at the same time. Even if easier for tall people, some 7As still feel easier than this, so hard to say. Maybe 6C+ if you're tall, but harder for shorter.

Nice crossover move but much easier than the leftmost easy routes 🙈

Remember to clean the pine needles from the topout

Very nice moves, bailed from the top slab on flash and then after scouting and downclimbing felt nice and less "adrenaline" :D

Started as a sitstart and maybe gets closer to 6A that way. Buy between 5+/6A that way. Very nice.

Oikeen kiva pikkulinja pikkusille ja isommillekin :D

Nice ladders

Done it many years ago, but today classic Albarracin style

Taistelua ja kivaa sloupperia mut helvetti ku joutu yrkkää täysii 😂

Eliminated the left big shelf and everything on the right of the first vertical crack

Found a pretty good beta that makes this real easy on a good friction day, today was a bit hotter in the sun but quite good. Will feel mega solid on friction day :D

Didn't use the big shelf in the start

Really nice, felt kinda hard but couldn't also do dynamic moves with small pads and feel safe so that might have contributed. But my style of route, missed an integral foothold on flash go as well.

Very nice little problem with hooking etc :)

Hmmm, the 4s nearby are easier than this. Tricky topout for someone expecting a 3. Check it out first

Nice little sitstart and topout

3rd go, did the flash all wrong and got full body pump. Did the 2-3rd with a sitstart, gives a few more nice jams!

Nice and easy adventure :)

Nice but also feels a plus harder in hot temps 😅

Hard in hot weather 😅

Kinda did a very hard beta but cool moves

Heh, really bad for my meniscus

Niceeee! ♥️♥️♥️

Kiva!

Started from left crimp and arete, then a very annoying move to match and then jump and tired af. Wingspan not enough to dyno from starting holds but this way I'm still doing it more or less in the original way amd holds. Somewhere between 6C and 7A.

Not a very good problem but in a nice spot

Not quite 7A but nice short problem with pinching and mantle topout.

No stars because the base of the rock has a bunch of human excrement

Felt hard, surprisingly cool moves from a sandbag sitstart. If you need beta, ask @halfgingerman 😅

2nd goooo murr

Fantastic line! And good session and got support for that one. Good. Try. Murder face xD

Just feels kinda hard and sharp, harder than Martikainen stand for sure. Or maybe it's good with good beta, although best beta for me so far and no cutloose but still felt really hard. Maybe not quite my style but in the ballpark.

Heh, sandbaggy old school Finnish climb 😅 Quite a tough sitstart :D

Sandbag galore

Seemed kinda hard :/ Maybe tired. A bit reachy crux?

Topout seems hard?

Kylmäatnatuuli

2nd go

Easier for tall, kinda friction dependent.

Did it campusing in the beginning and last moves used feet (no shoes kinda interesting feeling)

Very nice.

The corner crux makes the grade more or less. Very very hard if you're very very short, I imagine. But maybe not 7A+ unless you're very short. Even easier for taller people and I'm 180cm 😅

Really nice climb but...seems too easy for 6C? But I'm a bit tall so maybe that's why? I dunno. Excellent climb but easier than the grade suggested here.

I dunno, seemed maybe morpho or I was missing something but very extended and burly beta.

Morpho?

Seems morpho with a small pad? 😅

Too close to other lines

A bit stupid and slightly more dangerous with eliminate. Perkele.

Quite nice statically with kneebar and right hook

A bit easier for taller people

Topout is quite dirtyy

Maybe 6B+/6C. Topped it out like the line shows from the same side where the line starts. Makes you do a semihard gaston move. Not a 7A. Imo Pippeli's first move is harder than any of the moves on this boulder.

Uponen sanoi, että paska 6C. Oli gagga. Olin ehkä väsyny. Mut joo. Pois tehty.

Quite nice even if dirty. Probably haven't been climbed in a while.

A very nice traverse, sorta some stiffer sequences but solid fun!

2nd go, a wee bit scary topout

Would give it 2 stars if the topout wasn't wet 😅

Quite crimpy for me taste

Sharp and ridiculous

Just gave me a ton of trouble but finally done. Kinda nice but maybe would give it a + more, especially if you have to crimp like crazy. And if you're really short, I'm not sure how to do the last bit before the top.

Consolation prize! Just had to get those forearms to the top and then just power it out seal style! 😊

Cool line, took quite a few sessions. Seems stiff in a way. Never know about these old school crags and grades. Could be 7B somewhere else or something. Quite burly although after working on it and getting the moves smoother, not as bad. And I guess I've done workouts that help with the supportive muscles that I've never trained. So maybe that helped :D Last and most tired try but got it. Cool moves in a classic place.

I think deserves 2 stars but my climbing was shiiiiit

Would be better without silly eliminates

Two stars for cool heelhook sitstart beta. Works for all shapes and sizes!

Hard for shorter people for sure. I fall somewhere in between.

Really if you're short and on top of that tired. Fell on the rock below. Tried jump back to the pad but a branch stopped me. Be careful with this one!

Cool but slippery 😅

Wet af

Since there's not a whole lot of eliminates, found a beta that makes this about 5+

Gaston fest! Found a very nice pretty much static beta. Powerful but beautiful moves either way :)

2nd go, misread the topout but with 2nd go quite nice

3 stars. Felt like a kid again ❤️

Would give it stars but too hot and too dirty holds. Angry climbing and body parts hurt. Top crux definitely easier for taller people. Not sure even if strong with crimps helps shorter people.

Slippery jesus

Nice dyno but ss feels a bit sandbaggy 🤔

2nd go, didn't quite commit with one tiny crashpad :)

I dunno wtf I did wrong but that felt hard 😅

I am completely unsure about the grade. But a really nice line and the more obvious one I think. Delicate first moves on slopers and a powerful weird lockoff move to a jug and then the rest of the stand. Good vibes from this one! Please repeat and let me know what you think! :) If your hip mobility is poor, this will be quite hard. Also very easy to dab.

Hard mooves kinda. Hard to say. At least in these temps felt quite tricky and did almost like a 2-finger lockoff/pull at the end, so maybe harder for shorter people? I have no idea. Bring crashpads 😅

Weird ss

Yeaaaah....a bit harder for shorter people for sure. Especially top moves.

Can't reach good holds, had to ninja kick to a heelhook and hug and mantle way to the top. Was a bit wet but this beta feels pretty 6C.

Can be climbed with footholds or without. Toput becomes 6A-6A+ ish without footholds. Fun!
