This route is located on the so called “Northerly Entrance Face” of Wadi Bani Awf.
The 1. pitch was first tried by Heidi Wettstein and Jakob Oberhauser in 2007 but “the extraordinarily loose pitch” let the party quit and “abseil down off two pegs”. In 2020 we used this two pegs to extend the route for three more pitches. We called it “Breaking Bad” and we definitely confirm the extraordinarily loose rock!! 😀
Martin is leading pitch number two…
Two solid threads for belay… that is how we like it! 😉
