Jump and reach!

Tackling 'Jump and reach!' (8-) in Kühlschrank C (North) was an exhilarating and challenging endeavor. The name itself hints at the route's defining characteristic: a committing dynamic move. Kühlschrank C, true to its 'refrigerator' moniker, presented a steep, somewhat chilly wall, particularly on its North face, adding to the route's raw feel. The crux, as anticipated, was the eponymous 'jump and reach' – a powerful dyno from a small crimp to a distant, positive hold. It demanded perfect timing, explosive power, and a good dose of courage. Beyond the dyno, the route maintained its intensity with sustained technical moves and tricky body positioning. Every move felt precise and deliberate, pushing my limits. Successfully sticking the dyno felt like a monumental achievement. The subsequent moves, though still challenging, flowed with a newfound confidence. Reaching the anchors, pumped but elated, was incredibly rewarding. 'Jump and reach!' isn't just a climb; it's a test of nerve and power, a true 8- classic in its genre.
