'Perfect for Eastern Europeans' is supposed to be the word on that one

thanks a lot for your help :)
and 'Perfect for Eastern Europeans' means that it's quite hard I suppose ...
I need this topo for my friend, he made "sea of dreams" on El Cap for his first Big Wall

Be aware that there was a large rockfall from this area in July 2006, originating about 1/3 of the way up the face. I believe Kali Yuga was hit hardest (an entire roof section let loose), but Bushido may have also been affected. Be especially wary of loose flakes on this route.

Half Dome. In October Dale Bard and I did a new route on the northwest face of Half Dome. The route is on the right side of the face. The first 900 feet followed a huge arch with very awkward, strenuous, loose, expanding aid climbing. The upper part required many holes (105 total). Dale, who has done all the routes on Half Dome’s northwest face, said this route was certainly the most difficult. The climb required eight days of continuous climbing, with four pitches fixed. The route is extremely steep, strenuous, and dangerous, with no retreat possible.

I mean what's not to love about this route? "The route is extremely steep, strenuous, and dangerous, with no retreat possible."
It has all the ingredients of a great route!

I believe the Long Walk runs in between Tis-sa-ack and the Kali Yuga, and is not independent at either end. That's all i know. Josh Helling might know more.
