Julley

5.6, Sport, TR, 42 ft (13 m),  Avg: 3 from 2 votes
FA: unknown
International > Asia > India > Northern India… > Ladakh > Shey Rock

Description

A very good introduction to the many friction face climbs at Shey, no handholds and placing lots of trust in your feet. There are also top rope bolts on the left side for setting up two top ropes. The toughest move for most people is initially getting on the boulder!

Location

The route is the first big boulder you see when you arrive in the parking lot, you can't miss it.

Protection

Originally, there were three bolts up the face and chains at the top. In addition, there was another top rope anchor to the left side.

As of July 2022, the bolts have been removed.
