Seeräuber
7cA very beautiful and impressive short route, 3 pitches only, but difficult and excellent rock. The way is including the two cruxes. The off – width begins as slightly vertical and then straightens up. It is graded as 5.10 unprotected (graded by top-rope), and estimates later as 5.12 and apparently named Dire Straight.
Approach
The route follow hand/finger – jamming crack 20m left from main big gully/chimney (that splitting the cliff to 2 parts)
