a very difficult sports climbing route has been opened at the east face of Titlis by Stefan Glowacz and Markus Dorfleitner on July 4th 2004 after two years of preparation. They called the route "Letzte Ausfahrt Titlis" (= "last exit Titlis")

according to this source:

500m, 13 pitches: 6c+, 5c, 6c+, 8b, 7b, 6c+, 6c, 7a, 7a, 7b, 7a, 6c, 6c.

Titlis is not part of the Uri Alps Group.
Titlis is a part of the Urner Alps. That is a different mountain range even it sounds a little bit similar.

Hi Nik,

Thanks for the comment, you are correct, Titlis is not in the proper "Uri Alps" group, but there is no other page on SP for the Urner Alps, so, for now the most appropriate place for the page is under the Uri Alps. There are some other peaks listed on the Uri Alps page that are also not in the proper range. Maybe somebody can make an Urner Alps page and put the correct mountains in the right list.

You can put it directly under the Bernese Alps.

According to SOIUSA the Urner Alps are an untersection 12.I and therefore part of the Bernese Alps.
