> Super Mario 6c
really it should be 6b in the guidebook anyway i agree on the 6c.
oh and at 6c then why not go for "zagreb" much better route imho.
my super mario experience:
-three years ago i climb it somewhere near the end of the trip, in the shade, as a "warm down". Since i had a solid 6c/7a onsight level at the crag during that trip, i had no big problems, but i have this memory of finding it a bit of a bitchy route, something i could have an embarassing time on, on the wrong day...
-last year, after a shoulder injury and a move (for geographical reasons) from mainly rope climbing to a strict font&plastic regime, i get back on the same route. It's in the sun, it's my first route of the day, i have this feeling it's a very bad idea but anyway there's some friends' draws in so let's have a go.
I stop twice and refuse to commit on the last sketchy move (slopey hands slopey feet, runout, all polished).
In this same trip i've been regularly cruising ananda (7a) as a warmup when i was in cascade, and ticked privilege (7c+).
so, my friendly advice is STAY AWAY FROM THAT SANDBAAAAAAAAG!!!
a sector with some nice easier pitches is grande face, not everything is in the guidebook since most of them are new. The only problem is that the rock is sharp!
The 7a single pitch starting with a small roof is really soft, more 6c really (could change in the next guidebook?).
There are some new-ish easy pitches in between face de rat and thorgal, those as well not reported in the topo. However thay do not seem great and they are in full sun all day...
dalles de capeps and golots a gogo are mostly easy stuff, but friends reported sketchy, polished, runout, sandbagged.
