23 Nov New route in South Africa

 
From Luke Laeser in Climbing: "Bavarians Max Dünßer, Reinhard Hones and Martin “Wusel” Schindele climbed a new nine pitch route at 7b+ (or 5.12c) at South Africa’s impressive Yellow wood Amphitheatre. The bullet hard sandstone presented many natural protection opportunities thus the team placed only a few bolts, but always at least one at anchor stations, in TraSchlaBo-style (which translates to Trad-Piton-Bolt) on the 350 meter wall. The Germans named their new route Your Mothers Face."
