Settore Centrale, a sun-drenched amphitheater of rock, immediately draws your gaze to its striking lines. Among them, 'EH MERSH' (grade 9-) stands out – a route whispered about for its demanding sequences and technical finesse. The initial section, a pumpy warm-up, quickly leads to the main event: a series of intricate crimps and dynamic moves on slightly overhanging terrain. Every hold felt precise, every foot placement critical. The '9-' definitely makes itself known in the upper third, where sustained power endurance is key. You're constantly fighting the pump, searching for that elusive rest, pushing through with ragged breath and burning muscles. The feeling of clipping the anchor was pure elation, a testament to a rewarding ascent that truly challenges both strength and mental fortitude, leaving you eager for more of Settore Centrale's offerings.
