Kuba Kaya, along the left edge of the tower v. Kuba Kaya Tsentralnaya, 5B, (S. Pugachev — P. Shvets, 2008) The technically challenging part of the route follows a pronounced, sometimes overhanging internal corner in the left part of the Central tower. Mainly, it's A1–A2 level aid climbing, with the upper 30 meters being IV-V category climbing. The length of this part of the route is 100 m. 4 pitons were left behind - at 12 m, 35 m, 45 m, and 70 m. It wasn't possible to fully commit and feel some kind of extreme; everything was calm and reliable. If you "connect" the upper part with the lower part of the "9 Marta" route, you get a full-fledged Crimean 5B. Crimea, Kuba Kaya. "Marsala" Route, 5B Crimea, Kuba Kaya. "Marsala" Route, 5B

Route №10 «Diagonal»

5A V+ A2 520 m (12 pitches). Average time to complete — 5–7 hours. The route goes through a diagonal groove that crosses the southern wall bowl from right to left. Its upper part coincides with Route №7 «Classic». The route is interesting. However, it is not popular because the diagonal groove in its middle part is heavily overgrown:

• with grass
• with bushes The path from the parking lot to the start of the route takes about 40 minutes. Follow the trail to climb to the foot of the rocks in the «Roping Ground» sector. Move along the grassy ledge with trees going up and to the left, heading west, and reach a large terrace. From here:
• Climb 15 m up the moderately difficult rocks to the next large terrace.
• Continue moving along the terrace to the west towards the base of a wide internal angle with a tree growing nearby.
• Start the route from here. R0–R1: 40 m. Move up and to the left along the internal angle for 20 m, then make a difficult traverse to the right to a rocky ledge. Follow it up and to the right to a group of strawberry trees.

• anchor pitons
• large cams From the parking lot, ascend via the trail to a large clearing. From here:
• first, up along the forest path,
• then up and right along ledges and gentle slabs.
