Access Issue: Keeping climbs open depends on maintaining good relationships with locals and monks
Details
This climbing area is intertwined with monasteries and pagodas. It is critical for climbing in Myanmar to maintain these relationships through respectful conduct with the monks and the surrounding areas. Please be modest, respectful, friendly, and responsive to the wishes of the monks and local people. Do not climb on religious monuments, and remove shoes when crossing over established pagoda areas.
Description
Featured, strange, and sometimes insecure climbing takes you to the top of the wall. This route will probably clean up to be better over time. As it is now, there is still a lot of loose rock lurking on the route. I found that I had to try hard to climb around features that felt like they would break off. Also the anchor placement was a little strange, look to the right at the top of the route.
Location
Fifth route from the left, number 5 on the Fire Wall topo photo.
Protection
Bolts, carabiners at the anchors.
