Dang Bawi Sea-cliff (Ocheon-dong) - Yeosu

[Goulash]

Has anyone been climbing at Dang Bawi Sea-cliff (Ocheon-dong) - Yeosu? I've just moved here and was checking out the rock around the area.

I found this one and it looks like a fun little bouldering / climbing practice area very close to my house, but I went to check it out last night and those anchors look scarry! I'll admit it was dark, so I couldn't see so well, but has anyone been up it recently?

I don't wanna get to the top and find I have no-where to anchor.

the middle section of the crag (seen here) has a handful of routes with the typical sketchy anchors. not sure about the other routes.

Thanks Ricardo,

I went back there to check it out in the day light and surprisingly, it looked better in the day. What I thought were dodgy anchors are... but very old ones from when there seems to have been a lot more climbs around the rocks. They are just old rusted pins with a ring through them.

From what I could see, there were only about 4 usable sport climbs with proper anchors there. If you had your own Trad gear, the place would be full of fun... but unfortunately I'm not that well equipped. ^^

Anyway, it's nice and close to my place, so I should be able to have a bit of fun playing around there and there's always Horangsan and Yeongso Pokpo just up the road.
