Dunja valley, Julian alps: Red line Ronin, M9+, yellow line: A new hope, M10+.

There is another M7+ route in the cliff and possibilities for more.

The line is separate to that of Ronin, thus representing a clean and unfoisted climb. Really mixed due to several verglassed parts..
Above the initial ice pillar there is a section of shallow cracks and verglassed hooks.
Under the roof, the route goes intothe decisive phase: bad footholds and kinda treacherous iced hooks that gave us some chills.
Huge ice curtain behind the back is just a background. The route follows the roof until its lip.
There are 9 bolts in situ plus a carabiner in the last bolt that enables you to descend if you have no abalakov hook on you. There is no fixed belay above the roof.
The last move is long enough to make you squeeze out your power reserves.
But then it is done.
 
A swing and half turn make you reach the ice.
Impressive sight from the bottom belay. Watch out for them candles because they are huge and wet. They can come down whenever they decide. Stay well clear of the impact zones
. Exit curtain is impressively huge. And impressively scary. One of its neighbours, from Ronin ropue, came down one day close to Klemen and me. It seemed, felt and souded like a medium size Big Bang.
