Vaja con Dios (Memorial Cristi Sândean)

A short modern sport line up the middle of Cheile Turzii's biggest wall, between the classic peg routes Jenci Bacsi and Ave Maria. Small holds and a slightly dusty face lead to a closely bolted 7a crack-and-face crux and a big undercling traverse under a roof. Four pitches, then abseil, or carry on up Bulinel to the top.
