Arginonta Valley – routes not in 2019 topo

[Anonymous]

Hi, there are new routes in Arginonta Valley, between the Main Wall and the Right Wall that are not in the new topo.

Any info available on those ?

Length from 15m up to 28-30m.

Grades (not confirmed yet, from the left) 5a, 5a+, 5b+, 5c, 5c+, 6a, 5c, 5b+.

Thank you Aris.

I have done the four routes on the right, and agree with the grades.

Thanks Aris.

Have done ( from the left) numbers 2,3 and 5.

Agree with your suggested grades.

I have lead all of the eight new routes mentioned above. I, and everyone else who had climbed the route, Zatz, the second route from the right and reportedly a 5c, agreed that it was the hardest route of the group and most likely a 6a or 6a+. All of the routes in ArgVal are simply amazing and very popular. Already the foot holds are getting polished.

Consensus of opinion of grades at Arginonta Valley were: Mona Lisa 6a and Les Gallois 6a+ which is about right. Both are good routes. Thanks again for cleaning and bolting.
