Chalk marks made onsight possible

Used the figue tree.

pretty nice!

it's been a journey.

delicious!

start felt tricky and easier for a tall person, rest of the route was beautiful!

sharp and scary

seconded. was dark and wet

superb route! 50m rope was enough.

p2,7,10 on lead, with Roosa and Jukka. linked p3 and p4, p5 and p6 with double 50m ropes.

lead p1,3,5

/w Roosa

climbed quite far to the left from bolt line, not sure that is how it is supposed to be climbed. alternative ways (along the bolt line and to the right from it) seemed blank.

felt hard to onsight

unusual start and constantly uncomfortable

slab part was harder than overhang

one of the best 5s I've climbed in Finland

enjoyable

really pleasant!

coool

climbed first to the right from bolt line, then to the left. couldn't find a way to climb straight up.

start fwlt a bit hard for the grade

disgusting

pleasant slab

footwork at the start was too hard for me

crux was hard to solve, ended up stealing beta

crux felt less scary with preplaced quickdraws

first three bolts are hard, rest is easier.

noice!

At the slight overhang before the top go right. Topo book said this is 30m, was less than 25m when we climbed it.

A taste of climbing in the cave. view from the anchor made me happy

lead pitches 1,3,5, enjoyed. walking off was harder than climbing up - make sure to follow blue marks and piles of rocks.

holds aren't easy to spot

only two stars because holds are covered with salt :)

my first Kalymnos route ^^

probably feels nicer when all holds are dry...

nice one - there's a bit of everything on the way up!

liked it very much!

maybe it is a 6b+ if you don't use the ledge on the right.

regretted not reading start sequence (up to 3rd bolt) before climbing

a versatile route! one extra bolt would be nice on top of the pillar

tree leaned on me once or twice :)

2nd or 3rd session, first bolt preclipped. nice one!

2nd go, mental rollercoaster

hard to read

forearm-heavy

might be morpho between 1st and 2nd bolt

very pleasant route!

morpho, is easier if you're tall

2nd go, awesome route!

3rd go, bouldery indeed

weird and hard for a 5+

what the hell is this grading... it only made me mad

with such a footwork-heavy start it should be at least 5+, if not a 6a IMO

while on topo this route goes straight up, on the crag it actually went a little bit to the right. also don't repeat my mistake and stick to the right instead of using the tempting ledge between 3rd and 2nd last bolts.

My first outdoor 6c! Couldn't find the beta myself, so had to steal it :3

swapping leads, p1&p2 TR, p11&p12 lead

three-season journey came to an end today, sooo good

didn't like it, imo too height-dependent

awesome!

rope got stuck in the crack near 3rd bolt when pulling it down after rappeling- be careful

5th or 6th go

first route at Nalkkila for me - felt veeery strange

screwed up onsight by grabbing the anchor chain instead of clipping the rope :(

Significant rope drag in the second half of the route, the only anchor visible at the top had only two bolts without any chain/rings between those. Maybe not the intended anchor for this route. And had much "fun" rappeling all the way down collecting quickdraws :) Maybe multipitching from intermediate anchor would be a better idea/experience.

scary af but didn't slip between 2nd and 3rd bolt :)

Between 2nd and 3rd clip moved a bit to the right instead of climbing straight up - have to give it another go.

Some holds were wet, used artificial holes.
