Staden Quarry - Charas Wall

1. Silent Manoeuvres E4 5c * the right-hand side of the left arete of the wall gives superb technical moves with no gear but, unfortunately, the possibility for escape.

2. Telescopic Demand E3 6a * Excellent technical climbing via the faint thin crackline 5m right of the arete uses a side runner off right and a very long reach. Finish more easily above.

3. Swan Song E1 5b * the vague right-trending rampline and a faint crack above leads to the TD finish.

4. Bicycle Repair Man E1 5b ** the classic of the slab. Tackle the obvious thin crack, difficult, to gain the face proper and a small ledge. Trend slightly leftwards and up to finish via an obvious short wide crack.

5. Charas HVS 5b * the thin central crackline of the slab. The battle with the tree is awkward and the central section of the crack difficult.

6. Mozaic Piece E4 5c * moves right out of Charas above the tree to climb the unprotected face. Even more unprotected is the direct start at E4 5c.

7. Wipe Out E2 5b ** a faint crack above a ledge leads to holds trending leftwards into a tiny groove and bold moves soon easing. The direct start makes it E4 5c.

8. Paraplege E3 5c * From the start of Wipe Out continue straight up the slab via a thin crackline to a hollow finish on the headwall.

9. Amaratarusa VS 4c The slim corner line bounding the right-hand side of the wall with the small overlap providing the difficulties.
