Pumpy routes in Frankenjura
August 23, 2022, 08:16:43 pm
Anyone have any good ideas? Ive done some of the more obvious ones, e.g. things at Illafels, Father and Son, Roof Warrior, Battlecat

7c-9a zone, also can't have too many monos or small crimps... I.e. the less franken the better  :lol:

Good shout, though the monos may cause issues... Looks worth a look though

I hope you'll be knee-barring monos on those stamina plods over there!

Plenty of knees out there on things actually! Though obviously not as many as I'd like...

Have you tried the Frankenjura.com filter feature? You can sort by route length and style etc. Could be useful. I think you've mostly done the steep/endurancy stuff that I've tried. Clockwork Orange at Jules Verne Massiv is a nice 25m 8b without any grim holds from what I remember. I should go back and have another look at it really!

Given the last post where you were going to take up knitting because you were so crippled and then went on to climb BIG NUMBERS I'm expecting to see an IG post about you climbing Action Directe. Anything less and I'm going to be deeply disappointed.

I hear the cake is good even if your fingers aren't?

Bit out of my pay grade, but you should check out 'Liebe ohne Chance' 7c at Obere Schlossbergwand and 'Starlight Express' 7c at Zwergenschloss. Both crags are two of the best and have plenty of harder routes to go at too.

Alex will piss both of those but the 8s at said crags might stand a chance without awakening the PIP demons  :icon_beerchug:

Good to see that session we did had a lasting effect. 👍🤣
