Description

This is the first line going up the hill to the left of Regular Route which does not end on the First Terrace. Follow 3 bolts up to a ledge, then leave the ledge on 1 more bolt before hitting an 'easier' crack, ending up traversing to the chains above 'Clast von Bulow'. The second bolt has ground fall potential.

Location

This is the first line going up the hill to the left of Regular Route which does not end on the First Terrace. Look for 3 bolts which lead to a ledge, above which is a 4th bolt. Easier to see if you stand back from the wall.

Protection
