Depression

Climbing "Depression" (graded 8+) in the Vienna Woods is a formidable challenge. The route, presumably named for its psychological impact, likely features intense sequences of powerful moves on small, crimpy holds. The rock in the Vienna Woods is typically limestone, known for its sharp features and technical footwork requirements. An 8+ grade suggests a high level of physical strength, finger strength, and refined technique are essential. Expect sustained, overhanging sections requiring efficient movement and minimal wasted energy. Success on "Depression" would be a significant achievement, requiring dedication, focused training, and the mental fortitude to overcome the route's physical and mental demands. It's a test of both climbing skill and the ability to manage pressure on a demanding and likely painful route.
