Rosa Marzipan

6b

A very nice short route well suited, when strung together with the adjusted route "Max", for a shorter day of climbing. Pitch1: Scramble up and right till base of first face, which leans in the direction of the gully's upward grade below. Climb up face via crack system, past small tree to belay at ledge below dihedral and second face. 45m, 5.10. Pitch2: Climb face up and diagonally left via thin crack system, continue up and right to belay on slabs above. 45m, 5.10

Approach

Ascend "main gully" above two cement pools. Pass "Fistuk Halabi" gully route on the left. At upper half of gully a reddish brown wall rises to the left. "Roza Marzipan" route is the first obvious route on this wall. A second line not climbed yet. Max is the third obvious route up this wall.

Descent

Left, then up and right, then down to top of gully.
