Super nice and unusual climbing! Felt really hard…

Really good minus the linnunpaska at the first ledge.

Really good quality route! Continuous and interesting moves.

Perfect beta from Eetu!

Was still quite dirty, but now cleaner. Really good compression gem! Shame that the place does not get more traffic..

Did it on the same go as climbed the full line

Amazing and adventurous! One of the best routes I have done. Thanks to Markus for the inspiration and big up to legend Johannes.

Excellent, brilliant, superb... A legendary classic and a memorable experience.

Good climbing.

Nice boulders!

Nice and tricky! Was nice to plug in some trad gear after a long break.

Classic!

Interesting sequences.

Really good!! Perfect beta from Mina. Same first move as Baby Face.

17 years with the sport and now I did this pilgrimage.

Physical climbing to annoying lip encounter to balancy headwall followed by ”Sauvolainen 6c”. Close to three stars in my opinion!

Exceptionally continious crimpy line! Liked a lot.

Slipped from the start on OS

Pure beauty, one of the best 8a:s I have done.. Franky out, until next year!

Harder than most of the 7c/+:s in here : D

8a topo grade, really nice!!

Classic from W. Thon! 8a+ is the correct topo grade

After the broken hold, for me felt really solid. Classical route!

classic!

Brutal Endurance manifest, one of the biggest fights I have had on a route. 8a+ is the correct grade and a freaking solid one.

Freaking nice power endurance test piece! 8a+ is the correct grade.

Felt really easy

Magnificent route! 8a+ in the topo

Super close on the flash but good old fashioned f'up. Really nice route with totally different styles!

Nice!

Nice long lockoffs on good edges!

Great beta from Floyd once again!

Indeed

Funky!

Wicked sequence in the roof!

Classic!

I believe 7c in the topo

Alpine style climbing even though I have never climbed in the alpine, but still would think that this is as close as it gets!!!

Three star movement + forced line = 0 stars

I believe 7c+ in the topo

Brilliant route aswell

Brilliant route!

Legendary.. Hard boulder at the start followed by pretty continuous climbing. Looked at this line numerous times and thought it was impossible, Ole resurrected the line! Double send with Matthias, 8b before lunchtime.

Luisenwand is the place to be! Big classic by The Güllich himself.

Nice warmup!

Finally feeling like getting back on the groove of sport climbing! Nice power endurance route with couple of hard moves thrown in to the mix. Felt like a solid 8b+ to me.

One for the training.

IMO much nicer than Plan B!

Magnificent

Magnificent

Great beta from Floyd! Unusual moves.

Good!

1st go after quickly checking the top part. Really good climbing!!

Fucking ace! Props to Teemu for the vision. Been on my list for as long as I first visited Olhava and rowed under the route. Amazing moment climbing perfect line while the sun was setting down.

Old project bolted by Ville Komu. Tried this one maybe 7 years ago, but was not syked. This year got back, found a different beta, got really excited and climbed it in two sessions!

Full Contact insight

Magnificent, on to the next one!

Much better than I remembered!

Really good, especially the top part. My intention was to try to onsight Rottaralli, but accidentally got lost to this.

Linkup between Odysseia and Dulcinea with a couple of wicked moves inbetween. Powerenduro with shitty feet and smallish crimps!

Good route!

Super route that packs a punch!

Adventurous

Unlike anything I have climbed before!

Nemesis defeated! Definitely felt like the second hardest route I have climbed.

Waited a long time for this attempt, luckily it was successful!

Unusual

Amazing continuous compression climbing! Thanks for the great route and specific betas Paavo!

Underrated

Didn't take the detour. Great climb and good fight!

Exposed

Exposed and super quality!

Classical line with a very fingery boulderproblem.

Steep and strenuous! Would get solid two stars if the anchor was a meter higher, great moves!

Super

Hard hanging and exposed headwall

Immaculate!!

Totally underrated route. One of the best!

Güllich is the man!

Perfect beta from the maestro.

Good to finish this one off with a few sticky damp holds!

I've started to learn this thing called backsteps.

Close on the onsight

Class!!

Class!!

Technical and a bit tricky at the end

Adventurous

This and Pren nota can´t be same grade.

This climb rejected me before. Now did it with smooth style. Last route of the trip.

Andy said it well. Amazing experience and one of the most memorable days on this trip! One of the best routes I have ever done!

Guys started the sendtrain! Stellar route!

Rage send. Classical line!

awesome crux with a toehook!

Päälinja!

Amazing technical face climb! Thanks to Andy for the perfect beta.

Deserves the continious title IMO

Quickdraws on the go

Piburger classic.

classical start boulder

retroflash

New trend route! Liked this one!

Bouldery sequences with minimal rests in between. Felt good to put this one to rest!!

Almost fell of at the end, what a fight! A Rami classic!

Long route with a brilliant finish!

Punted the onsght cause of hidden foot.

Rugged little boulderproblem

JES! Good training route! Props to Martin Nugent for putting this masterpiece up!

2nd try

Nice weather today with a lot of wind. Finally had a chance to tick off this classic route!

Good beta from the man behind the route!

Best trad I have done!

Fingery start and delicate slab climbing to the top.

First time using jamming gloves!

J.koski classic!

Classic!

Nice bouldery section in the beginning. 5 goes.

Once got past my nemesis move I managed to send this one! Stunning climb. Magical friction today.

Feeling fit! Totally my style.

Would get more stars with better rockquality. Felt hard!

Hardest move I have done this trip. Nice long one with rests between the harder parts.

Amazing route. Easy start leads to sustained crimp pulling part. On my top-5.

Soft

Awesome pocket power endurance test!

Took me more tries than any route this year.

2nd go.

2nd go. Beta from mtk blog, thanks Antti!!

2nd go. One of the best 7c:s in Finland

This was fun!!

Airy at the end! Did the left variation. Super fun day climbing and jumping!

First half is good!

Good route for hot summer days! 3.go 8a/+

Old school start. No chalk, had to fight

2nd go, really need to get that jam right! Vanhakunnon 7b+

Vanhakunnon

2nd go. Liked the ending compression!

Endurance is coming back!

2nd go

Good flash burn. Hard!

Brilliant route! Powerfull crux with underclings and bad footholds!

Pasi's old project. Starts out with 6b and after that 9 move boulder with crimps about 7B+ grade. Shitty conditions.

Happy, because it`s not my style. Needed few good tries to get the beta going! Direct start is going to be HARD!

Climbing style totally changes at halfway.

12 hours in a car is a good warm up! 2nd go.

Easy to onsight if enough power is involved.

Fifth day in a row and still counting! 2nd try

First tried gluckshormon, got a flapper. Pamus climbing got me syked again and flashed this!

A total fiasko.

Was close falling on thirty moves or so, still made it! Pamus onsight was sick! Rad man, so rad!

Amazing knee-drop to a jump beta! 2nd go!

first 8b woohoo! Definitely not the most beautiful ascent but it went. Snapped on third shot!

could have been easier with better skin and conditions. Bouldery.

Marvelleous climb! Definitely a must-do if you are hanging around. Second go.

So good! 2nd go, full line is so amazing!!!

stupid chipping.

chipped, but fun training!

Cool crack crux. 2nd go.

was a bit wet but still managed to pull it down! Gluckshormon too wet :(
