    where the access path first meets the wall, at a banana shaped cave and to the left.

    Nyssa 6a+ ** Alexander Juen, Thomas Jekel steep slabs and cracks, 25m, 9 Bolts

    Kami-Katze 5b ** Andreas Bergmann, Thomas Jekel, 30m, 11 bolts, up the main edge and slab above(needs winter rains)

    Tsipouro 7b ** Andreas Bergmann, 20m 8 bolts, the left line in the cave

    Ti Kanis 7a+ ***, Andreas Bergmann, the fantastic single tufa line in the cave.

    August 2021

    shade all day in the cave, from 10 am outside.

    Nyssa still had bolt dust on it when we did it last week. It appears clean but is sort of tricky up the broken feature and still holding plenty of dirt behind the cleaned features. It’s probably worth doing while in the area working the <7 grades. Note, if it’s your last route of the day, backtrack a bit to get on the main trail down.

    @Medium Sooze, it’s quite usual for new Kaly routes less than vertical that they need winters rains for dirt to be washed out.

    you comment on backtracking is spot on.

    Both of the 7’s in the cave are good little routes. Thanks :)

    We thought both 7a+, and yes the right hand one, Ti Kanis, is the better of the two.
