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
Vertical climbing on solid stone at the bottom with holds right where you need them and interesting movement. Unfortunately the top of the route has several large somewhat detached blocks perhaps bordering on the dangerous side. Wear a helmet and hope for the best if you decide to climb it.
Location
In the middle of Fire Wall, number 6 on the Fire Wall topo
Protection
Bolts, There are sometimes only bolt hangers at the anchors, if that is the case traverse a few feet over to 'Cheroots of Fire' and clean from that route.
