Eros sector with a 70m rope

[Anonymous]

Hi,

this sounds like a stupid question, but will the 40m routes at Eros go with a 70m rope? On the guidebook topos the routes look pretty vertical and straight (ie not wandery and overhung so that a shorter rope might work) so id imagine not, but i’d just thought it was worth asking.

Cheers

Remember to tie a knott in the end of the rope Tim : )

Place mobile phone close to belayer with Kalymnos mountain rescue No. on speed dial.

Good job you didn’t ask on UKC Num Num would laugh!

We climbed there last month and managed them on a 70m rope (the routes on the right that is) they appear to be nearer 35m than the 40m in the book.

Great routes,

Chris

Most of the routes on the right are 40 m. For safetyit is better you use a 80m rope.
