Yoban

Yoban is perhaps the most burly climb in Ulsan-bawi. It is a standing proof of the now forgotten chimney techniques back in 1980s.

P1(25m,5.10b) Climb the crack left of the large chimney which marks the start of Sasun-crack.

P2(15m,5.10a) A short slab will get you to the anchor on the chimney. It shares the same anchor as P1 of Sasun-crack.

P3(25m,5.10c) Follow the crack system that appears on the right side of the chimney.

P4(20m,5.11a) The hand jam becomes insecure as the route steepens.

P5(30m,5.10b C2) A 3m wide streak of water with lichens crosses the crack. You'll likely need to aid through this part. Otherwise, a solid 5.10 crack.

P6(30m,5.10a) The crack widens to a broken chimney. The anchor is at the base of a squeeze chimney above.

P7(30m,5.12a) This is the burly bit. The crack quickly widens from #5 to #6 then to #7. This pitch is protected by bolts placed in 2014.

P8(30m,5.11b) Another pitch of bolted off-width/ squeeze chimney, but not as steep.

P9(15m,5.10a) Climb past a huge chockstone that forms a comfortable chimney.

P10(30m,5.6) Climb up the large boulders to reach the bolted anchor at the top.
