Best I've done here. Checked the moves and did it.

Much better than I thought. Felt quite easy for me, way easier than "Half Century" after break. Possible to onsight with chalk.

I fell like 10 times in the sloper move in the heat. Just couldn't hold it :D With better conditions, didn't feel hard. If the route was 8a before, then it's a + now I think. The beginning is quite physical with bad feet. Also the start of the crux is harder as the jug is missing for the feet. Who knows?

Legendary project from my father freed by Yuzu. Unique style for Finland. The upper crux has a character and it's droppable for sure haha! Go climb in Pickala!

Way too hot for a route like this. Great route though! For sure not the best in Finland, sorry Sami :)

Such a good one! Failed to onsight :(

Thank you Flatanger for the summer.

A classic of Flatanger. Not the biggest fan of the roof part in Hanshelleren.

Yeah! Extremely rarely repeated from Ondra! Long run-outs after "Nagells" chains. Hard to work but what a route! The crux is crazy exposed. No way 8b as it's much harder than all the 8b's here, hence the low amount of ascents.

Best of the best best best. Ondra classic. Oh yes, also quite hard :)

What a route! Unique shield protecting the upper part with a low percentage crux.

Like three grades easier than nagel's extension.

Masterpiece. Honestly I don't think climbing can get much better than this, five stars all the way!!

Tricky and techy. Happy for Yuzu :) You ROCK!!

On the way on extension!

Great set of holds, a bit contrived line.

Pure endurance!

What a stupid mistake cost the onsight attempt in the last "move"...

Not very good.

Almost fell in every move :D (crux was the easiest part of the route).

Just perfect sea of gneiss.

Yuzu beta's rules! Had done Flagger before, which shares the beginning, so not 100% pure flash.

Good old "7c+"? :)

One of the best on MTV!

So tired at the end of the day, good climbing all the way!

Best moves at Niemisel. The never ending love for double gastons :)

So cold haha! Great classic

Ein Meisterstück!!

Quite tricky boulder in the crux. If you can reach it with the tall people beta, I honestly think the route is not more than a 7b+ :D But it doesn't matter, go climb it!

Fingery for a warm-up, good beta from Yuzu!!

Super!!

Last move in the onsight, again... :D

Fell at the top on the onsight, seems like I can't climb anything first try this trip haha!

Great climbing!

Stunning prow in the middle of my favourite place in the world. A true masterpiece...

Hard!! Really impressive effort from Ruusu :)

Not that bad at all!

Fantastic endurance climbing!

Yet another hidden gem! A really fun one with a long interesting crux sequence. Gratitude if someone onsights this.

Skipped the 5+ slab in the beginning. The quality of the stone is a piece of art in the upper part. Extension is the real line, will come back for that someday!

Classic, first 8a in Ötztal.

All the stars in the world!! The upper sector of Piburger is something else...

Hidden gem

Outstanding route! I'm quite picky with stars, but the ending is perfect.

Ace route!!

I really enjoyed this. Technical upper part is unique :)

Hard to onsight! Really great climbing on smooth rock, nice one Teemu :)

First go but knew the lower part from "Bruce lee". Maybe the best route in the crag!

My first bolting experience! Epic journey with this one. At first it felt easier but then I broked a crucial foothold at the lower crux. Now it's quite bizarre... Later I had to fight with wet holds and shitty conditions. Today the weather was absolutely perfect. Only a couple of wet holds but fought my way up :) Maybe my best two climbing days in a row. A muerte!

A very nice corner crux with great rock!!

Today everything clicked. Such a strange climbing experience for me. It always felt easy but I guess it isn't after all...

Retro flash. Better than I remembered!

Alzheimer onsight after eight years. Great one from the legend Martin!

The first repeat after 16 years! Potentially the sharpest piece of stone in Finland BUT at the same time one of the most legendary routes out there. I've heard that quite many holds have shattered but it's still very climbable at the present state. Big falls are guaranteed at the crux :D The piton after the crux is moving so please be careful with it.

Did not come easily. A very, very good route. Top three for it's grade in Finland!

The original vision from Joonas. Sustained climbing all the way. Significant crux for me with a non-hold. Very body positon depended. Easier for taller probably as you can skip the epäote. Got terribly pumped and had to fight, stoked!

Detour.

Old-school classic from Henkka.

Should have warmed up better for my flash go... Sharp and fingery but great moves! 3rd ascent?

Proud line! Fingery and technical climbing.

It was pretty cool to climb this old legendary project. Sitstart with rope? One might say that it's weird. Honestly, I loved it :D Perfect set of holds, 5/5!

Joonas is the man! A piece of Frankenjura in Finland. Big classic! Did it fairly quickly, checked the moves once in the heat. Came back with better friction and did it with my first lead try.

Unusual for the grade. Interesting and physical moves through a steep roof. Have to come back here for the other stuff!

Dropped the quickdraws from the top after I flashed "Toyboy". Chalked the holds as nobody has climbed it in years. Didn't touch any of them tho. Freestyle beta for the win!

Thanks to Otto!

Epic moment with the last rays of sun. First try was super close, feeling wasted now.

Nummi, check! The last one from here and didn't feel easy until today. Seems like my weak right arm is getting some power :) Venga!

The project on the left is amazing!

A dream come true...

Everything feels so much easier with some friction. Consolation prize after I almost climbed my big project yesterday. Extremely bouldery route with a mono crux. Frankenjura style :)

Some sharp pockets but the moves are one of a kind! That right arm deadhang almost gave me a headache. Next time with a dumbbell like Sami :)

I don't know what the hell I climbed but I think I deserve the grade. Was so close to fall at the wet start :D

Wolfgang Güllich 1981!!

The first route I've ever climbed that is mentioned in Wikipedia :)

Kurz und knackig.

10-?? -('85) ?= +('14) :P

Finally! I've tried this on every single Frankenjura trip. Always close but no cigar. Big relief...

V8 in the start? Please come try Idefix in Sipoo as it's the same style :D

Kinda cool that you turn into Tomi Nytorp in the middle of the route. Reminds me of the comp wall in Salmis.

Moffat is a legend!

Surprisingly technical climbing for a new-school classic.

Good first day in Niemisel! 3rd go.

Last time I couldn't reach the starting hold :D Barely did it today. Cool moves and surprisingly powerful climbing at the same time. Third ascent and the hardest slab in Finland?

Had to do some finger recruiting for this one!

Muy Bien! Best birthday gift ever :) The upper part is best limestone climbing I've ever done. Had to really squeeze hard on the send but somehow I didn't fall. Second try of the trip is name of the game. A muerte!!

Another Siurana classic in the pocket! Second try this trip. Key for succes is not to feel your fingers on the crux :D

Striking line! Some hard moves with pockets and the classic run-out at the top. Seems to be the theme of the sector :)

Just a training link-up. Mordor is calling...

Turpasauna

Finally! For sure one of the best for this grade.

Vengeance is mine! :D

Madonna flash.

Masterpiece...

A memorable experience.

The LINE in Niederthai. A route that requires a lot of skill and focus.

Strong contender for the best 8a ever! Second try.

7c+?

Cool little jump at the top.

Little bit harder than "Rien ne va plus", Reinhard is the man! Glad that I got this on my second try.

Outstanding face climbing!

Whew, that was close fall from the last move :D

Great route, skipped the most awkward hold ever, felt hard that way.

Unique, I digged!

The very best!

Crimpy one with some freaky moves.

Brushed the holds and then climbed it, has one of the most amazing holds on the planet.

Almost fell at the crux :D

Could be the best "6", I've ever climbed!

Amazing....

Tres Chick

Vitamin M

Imsullah Rollum

Gorilla Bar

One of the best in Finland! Technical, yet very balancy climbing on cool holds. One of my all time favourites. Surprised myself to send it on my second lead attempt.

Great bouldery route! 8b+?

Classic! (Very polished)

Quite easy?

Amazing route!!

Crack climbing is not my cup of tea.

Unique crimpy climbing with great rock. Love the crux move! Not the best weather for this one.

Slippery holds in the heat.

Epic send! My kneebar slipped off in the second crux. Had to use power beta :D Another classic from Rami!

Second hardest route at Nummi. 8A boulder in the beginning with small holds. Another classic from Tomi!

Nemesis defeated! 3rd ascent.

So hard for me. It is hard to climb when back is injured... 8b/+

One giant mental war comes to a beautiful ending!

Big fight! Last send of the trip. 2nd try.

2nd go...

3rd go.

Best route on the wall imo. 2nd go.

2nd go. Beautiful route!

Great technical route!

Could be hard 8a or easy 8a+. 5 stars!

Foking hard!

4th go. Felt like I was climbing in Frankenjura.

2nd go. 8a+/b

Classic of the crag! 2nd try.

Maybe my beta was not the most suitable.

Warm up this time. 4th go total. Best route in the world?

Really good rock quality! 3rd go.

1 move wonder :P 2nd try.

Amazing climb!

Incredible granite climbing! 3rd go.

Bouldery. 2nd go.

Bouldery. 2nd go.

Should have flashed it... My fingers were freezing on last move :D

Basically onsight. Tried this few years ago.

Fun but hard moves...

Really fun slouper climb! 2nd try.

Double send today! Maybe the nicest line I've climbed so far. Really good moves with smooth holds. 4th ascent. Just before Kuutti :)

3rd go.

Pikku-siuntio, check!

Climbs like a competition route. Nice!

7a in topo?

Super cool.

Classic that opened everyone eyes! In a session.

Easy.

Nice mono crux.

Low on the grade.

2nd go, fell on flash in the last move.

Brilliant! 5 tries. 3rd ascent!

I had quite much trouble on this :D 3rd ascent?

Last send of the trip!

2nd go.

Yess!!
