Up The Rocks

Two years ago Thomas and me were top roping this route under the Physics’ wall (Yerevan Physics Institute) and decided to call it Sev (Black) because of the black part under a small cornice.
The ''Spitak'' rescue brigade had frequent trainings on these rocks.

In January I set up three bolts on the last 10m section of the route to make it safe for trainings. But unfortunately on that day the snow above melt and wet the whole route. Consequently we made up our minds to carry it out later.
On a sunny April Sunday Anahit, Miqo, Yulia, Vardan and me gathered to lead climb the route.

It’s 20m high easy route 5a/5.7 by our estimation. But it has small ledges under its small cornice, so at the point of whipper the climber can hit them, that’s why I set up the bolts to make it safer. I made also an anchor from two bolts below to the right. But the first, second adn anchor bolts are not quite permanent, they are 6mm in diameter and 18mm in lenght ,so you should take it into consideration.

The climber should also have some middle and small size protection gear for the first part of the route and an anchor above.
