Conditions dependent. Nice mantle topout - where's the foothold...

Rampzalige klimweek met slechts 1 middag droge rots en goed weer. Verder vooral veel regen, autoinbraak, klimschoenen gestolen (vervangers natuurlijk uitverkocht), rug verrekt en de laatste 2 dagen hoewel geen regen toch kletsnatte rots door de condensatie.

Tot einde moeilijkh. ivm natte top.

Beautiful prow with SS.

Very easy - 6C(+)?

SS doesn't add much to the overall difficulty. Very nice boulder though. #soft

Perfect friction today. No need to hook!

At last! Felt easy when it all came together, but hard/impossible before. Typical Font.

It does work! Cool.

Falling off is so much fun - even more so 15 years ago without pads! To weak to hold the swing so did it statically with heel hook on the left. 15 year project finally solved

I remember the slopers being worse then they are now - are they slowly getting better cause of all the traffic?

Kneebar into flat ‘jug’. Easiest ‘7a’ in Font

Fun, but not worth a star IMO.

Has to be climbed with both hands on the edge (dont use the big holds or edges round the edge). Otherwise considerably easier. #hard

Long term project finally climbed. Again, waiting for a windy day with low humidity was the key: ca colle! Bloody sweaty fingers!

Nice route, very esthetic. Back to 7A again.

Nice wall. Cool move. Very, very easy (6b-ish - really) with the right trick (have fun finding it).

Fun dyno with brilliant catch. Back in the jumping game. 3 times in a row

Variation to a variation? Nice route anyway.

Tricky and balancy arete. Found it difficult getting into position for the deadpoint to the beautiful ‘blob’. Easy end. Fun one!

Chipped holds (?) and 6b according to bleau.info. Didn't see any chipped holds. One hold low down on the right felt sandy, and might have been chipped (and/or eroded) But this does not effect the climbing nor the grade. Felt like proper 7a to me.

Has to be climbed with both hands on the edge (no holds round the edge). Otherwise easier. #hard

Felt hard for the grade. Might have been due to the sun. A typical Bleau problem and one of the best of its kind: technical, tricky and it aint over till its over. Go do it!

Micro-footholds. I believe I did it before the level of the ground was raised and without pad (Bleau.info: la voie est devenue beaucoup plus facile depuis que le sol s'est ensablé (30cm en quelques décennies!) surtout si l'on part d'un crash-pad...). Did the problem both with and without the sloper. #hard

Spent quite some time cleaningbthe entire top from at least one season of needles. Worth the effort since this is one of the finest routes I've done in Bleau. Hard start, foot first into kneebar, easy middle and fun mantle. Fell of the mantle 3 times in the slippery heat. Quite a bit of walking, searching, and schlepping the pads... It's clean now!

"Modern 7A's are sometimes easier than old school 5+" (J.P. Bouvier). Yup. Wet and dirty as well.

Hard (for me) - soft for others. Most tries on a boulder ever - after 7 years and some 20 visits I finally got to the top. #hard

Very easy jump once you figure out the correct position for the right hand and right foot. And again, and again, and again,... Overcast conditions surely help.

Easy start / hard finish on small footholds. Not to bad.

Big span/Cool move. Fun. Bit dirty though.

Rep.

Nice topout. Being tall helps. Still very easy for the grade. 6c+/7a. #2go #soft

Nice holes. Fun and 6A/B-ish.

We cleaned the left side of the boulder for the first time ever. Before there was a thick cover of moss. After the cleaning a hold appeared, which made the problem significantly easier. Hard 7a+ before, easy afterwards. #hard

Unusual climbing for Font on concretions. Worth the detour with Migration around the corner. Fairly easy, with one harder move. Should have flashed.

Should have onsighted/flashed, but heel rolled off the dirt going for the top. Bugger. Falling with my back/bum onto the rock below hurt Fun route - wish more in Bleau was like this: powerful moves with good holds and excellent friction. #soft
