Description Suggest change

This route draws the most traffic in Ulsan-bawi, so expect to see a line forming on weekends. Munri-dae follows a natural crack system with short slab sections that are well protected with bolts.

P1(30m,5.8) Start from a huge detached flake, then move to the right wall to make a few face moves to the anchor.

There is an alternative start further right, which consist of a 5.10a layback crack. This variation requires a #5 camalot.
Still another variation exists to the right, named Eunbyuk (5.11b, 25m), consisting of face climb on a balancy slab.

P2(35m,5.8) This pitch follows an awkward chimney passing an optional anchor in between.

P3(25m,5.8) Follow the crack to the bolt, then slab traverse right to reach the arete.

P4(10m,5.9) A short bolted crack is followed by a spacious perch.

P5(25m,5.8) A beautiful double crack leads straight up.

P6(15m,5.7) After a few layback moves, either climb straight up the chimney(airy) or traverse left along handrails (easier).

P7(25m,5.8) Lieback a few moves up, then head right.

P8(20m,5.10a) Ignore the bolt on the slab. Move right to a flared crack with insecure hand jams.

After topping out, find a rappel anchor to the back side of the wall. A 25m rappel will bring you among boulders. Downclimb to the left to reach the center gully rappel anchors. 30mX4 rappel will get you to the base of the wall.
