The route “Get your hands off” (III 3 M4, 350m) was climbed for the first time on 11/12/2024 by D. Daskalakis - Chr. Tsoutsias - St. Karantinakis.
The line, on the occasion of the International Mountain Day, was dedicated to the fight against the plundering and destruction of our mountains, which is why it was given this name.
On the 1st pitch (M3, 50m), we start on a snow ramp, then a little right on rocky passages and finally a right traverse on a snow ramp, under a wall with roofs, where we setup our belay.
On the 2nd pitch (M2 60°, 50m), we head straight up a rock passage and then right and onto a snow field, to setup the belay under a negative.
On the 3rd pitch (M2+, 40m), we go left and onto a slab of grass, then a little right and a small left traverse under a small negative with a vertical exit into grass, to setup the belay up and a little right.
On the 4th pitch (60°, 30m), we head left into a gully and at the end we go right, to setup our belay under rock passages.
On the 5th pitch (M3+, 55m), we go straight onto an M3+ rock passage and then onto an M3 chimney, with grass at the exit, then onto a snow field, then a little right and onto a vertical field of grass that ends under a roof, where we setup the belay.
On the 6th pitch (M4, 55m), we make a difficult right traverse under the roof, continue from the right and up, reach a snowy field and traverse descending to the right, to continue a little higher, where we setup our belay.
On the 7th pitch (60°-70°, 80m), we climb the left gutter with easy mixed passages (if we want, we can make an intermediate belay) and continue to the exit above, where at the end on the left we will find a small ledge that we must pass and setup the belay.
To repeat the route, the necessary gear is a full set of nuts and friends (up to Camalot #3), pitons and slings. The quality of the rock is very good, but the belaying in some places can be problematic.
