Description

Two easily accessible granite boulders in Anebo. Try wrestling up the slopers on "Karelin" or try the crimps on "Skogshuggaren" on the overhanging highball. There are also a collection of nice easier sloper problems on the lower boulder.

Recommended problems:
⭐ Karelin (7C)
⭐ Skogshuggaren (7B)
⭐Timmer (6C+)
⭐ Kåda (6C)
⭐ The Cleaning Crew (6A+)

Best season is usually spring. When developed the boulders were in a pine forest but since 2025 they are in a clear-cut with sun exposure during most of the day, so they can dry fast if it's sunny and/or windy.

The landings are good, but extra cashpads are recommended for both boulders.

Don't forget to also visit "Anebo - Manickmannen" and "Anebo - Super Ape" which both are close by.

History

The two boulders were originally surprisingly hard to see from the gravel road and they were driven by many times before actually scouted in 2023/2024. First ascents in early 2024 when they still were surrounded by a pine forest. Since 2025 they are located on a clear-cut.

The left arete on the "Kåda"-boulder was originally blocked by a tree. You can still (2025) see the sap on the boulder where the tree rubbed against the rock. Hence, the problems "Kåda" and "Skogshuggaren" on the left side starts on the face and not the arete.
