Description

Overhanging little crag with fourteen short fully bolted sport routes located high up on a slab with a pleasant view out over Ällmora Lake. The appealing red-yellow rock is quite solid and nice, but there are some loose flakes and bits here and there. The routes are no more than 7-8 meters high but sometimes offer fun climbing along interesting formations such as corners, dihedrals etc. This crag has been renovated, and all routes are equipped with modern anchors on top. Some climbs have also been equipped with extra bolts. This crag is worth a visit and is especially suitable on cold days when you want a lot of sunshine or avoid any mosquitoes down by Träskberget. This is not an extraordinary crag in any way, but it's a nice spot and the routes will probably keep you occupied for a long and sunny day. Since the routes are short and steep, however, you need to be pretty strong to get the most out of a visit. Do not bring children here, it is dangerous and they can slide down the slab.

This crag is pretty clean from moss, but there can be some dirt on top of the routes, and a brush might come in handy.

Environment:
Southwest. Located quite high and completely open to the sun. The rock gets very hot. January climbing could be possible on calm and sunny days. The sun strikes the wall approximately at about 12 o'clock.

History

Mikael Widerberg discovered this wall about 25 years ago and bolted up almost all the lines. Anders G joined in for a couple of days and bolted Speedball. Mikael was in lousy form and later gave away Sahara (8a) to Johan Luhr who seemed to be the only one who was interested. Mikael also gave away Sträckolin to Anders. Sträckolin was first done to the lip and got the name "48 timmars paus", but was then made all the way up ABOVE the lip, and finally was named Sträckolin. Mikael also drilled the line left of Firren many years ago but gave it to Rasmus Johansson who gladly took over and finished the project which resulted in the very nice Snåljåpen (7a). One old piton was found to the right of Firren which means others have been lurking around back in the days.
