Černým pásem

Climbing "Černým pásem" (Black Belt), graded 6+, in Márka was a truly challenging and rewarding experience. The route demands a combination of technical precision, raw power, and mental fortitude. The initial section involved delicate footwork on small crimps, requiring careful weight distribution to maintain balance. Higher up, a sustained sequence of powerful pulls on sloping holds tested my grip strength to its limit. There were moments where I felt my fingers slipping, and I had to fight hard to stay on the wall. The crux move, a dynamic reach to a relatively distant hold, was particularly intimidating. After a few failed attempts, I finally managed to stick the hold, letting out a yell of triumph. The remaining section, although not as technically demanding, still required focus and stamina to reach the anchor. The view from the top was breathtaking, and the feeling of accomplishment was immense. "Černým pásem" is a route that pushes you to your physical and mental limits, and conquering it is an experience I won't soon forget. It's a testament to the quality of climbing in Márka, and I highly recommend it to any climber looking for a serious challenge.
