The route leads between Baltese Falcon and Women and Chalk ones via a series of deaf cracks up to a huge two-sided Great Dihedral and further on it. Not crossing and not joining neighboring routes the line goes independently up to the summit ridge.

All the stations are almost bolted - basically on 2 anchors Hilti (8х50мм)- very safe, but somewhere it's is based on one anchor. As a rule it is possible to fix your own gear there. But all of them are inconvenient - hanging.

We did not bolt the route except for three bolts for safer belay at one pitch of the upper sector while we were climbing the mirror. We used to set anchors because it was practically impossible to climb the route without using of additional bolts.

We would like to extend great appreciation to our helpers and sympathizers, in particular:
General sponsor - " Mont " company
Sponsors "Trial-Sport" and "Mammut",
Mr. Trynin for financial support,
Federations of Mountaineering of Russia .
