Hong Kong Rock Description
65m. Complete with dramatic positions and demanding climbing, this is a solid outing. The original first pitch is traditionally protected however Feline Free provides the bolted alternate pitch.
Attention: rope signals should be prearranged for this pitch, as communication can be difficult.
1) 6b - 22m - 8 Bolts. Climb Reunion Ii to the finish at the belay ledge of Gweilo however traverse left and belay at the anchor below the left corner.
2) 6a - 15m - 8 Bolts. Climb Feline Free to reach the belay at the base of Pitch 3 of Feline Phrenology.
3) 6c+ - 10m - 7 Bolts. Launch up the challenging crack above the belay then continue into a shallow groove.
4) 7a+ - 18m - 9 Bolts. Force the desperate, undercut corner, then easier climbing leads out right to a climatic position on the short headwall. © Hong Kong Rock
