Sorry abe NM will have to make that call. Last time I tried to enter that valley via "the track" I wished I owned a flamethrower. Ha !!

If others have new routes or beta ...please add a comment to the google docs. I have updated loads of information and greatly appreciate any info.

Thanks

I think there is confusion in the latest guidbook about two routes at the gallery which start at the top left of the cave and exit it around the corner (A sport and a mixed line).

The sport line (which seems to be the harder one (21?) is the one going out to the arete while the mixed one (the easier one?) goes straight up.
The guide book displayes them the other way around as well as their grades switched.

Cheers,
Andreas

Andreas the topo looks right to me, except the 17 goes right later at approx 10m mark

Left route (contrived bolted face) =21
Right (arête on grey dyke jugs) =17

The 21 is a super squeeze job unfortunately

Except for the bolts are on the right...

Edit:
Ah okay, so i guess they both tackle the right side of the block, relatively close to each other?
Because at most parts of the 21 (the bolted line) I am able to touch the right arete.

KP, I edited my post re the new routes at Watchmen. Both routes finish at the same anchors. I've got a photo that I'll add the line of each route to and send to you a bit later.
