Stiegergasse 8b, 7C
a Merkenstein classic! Named after the viennese street adress of Roman Patlik, one of the early developers of the area and the author of the first boulder guide to the Wienerwald. starts at the Aga Uga Iga jug and follows the ramp to the left and around the corner. ends at a hidden jug on top of the bloc, just above the double crimp and sidepull feature in the middle of tarzan. originally climbed as a traverse to the starting holds of tarzan, the bloc boulder finish was added later, both variations are of the same difficulty. very hard for the grade, probably more like 7C+!
