Ascensions dans Catalunya

One night, two girls: English, Spanglish.

Gave it a shot and fell at the last bolt.

Climbed this better on the onsight attempt the other day, couldn't string a sequence together at all.....disappointed :-(

First go to put the draws up when straight up until the last bolt and couldn't do the last move just before the anchors. Ahhh! Loved the start and the knee bar just before the crux.

Fell at the crux just after the last bolt. It took me a few tries to sort it out and then tried the top section a few times. Got a bit better with the kneebar, using the shoulder helps.

Finally sent it!! Such a good climb.

For insight attempt went pretty well, got to last clip before the chains but fell as I couldn't find hold to clip.

Good rock on this one and some really sustained spots. It wanders around a fair pity following the good holds. I had a real fight at the top, almost came off.

7th and last climb of the day, too knackered to hang on to crux holds.

cruxy finish

Crappy end

Better rock on this one and some great climbing, climbs up into a cave for a rest then a hard couple of moves to reach the anchors.

Climbs like Rifle.

First 7a

Dont miss the clip halfway up. It is there.

Beautiful.

Right sequence Wrong way to hold the hold.

Cool climbing. Fingery.

Hardest thing I've done since ruining my shoulder. Felt pretty good - I think the rehab is working. Route was cool - very thin crimping start to a rest ledge. Then an overhanging crimp ladder for about 6 bolts. I just held it together.

very technical and nice climb

Had an onsight shot. Close. Powerful and fingery. Tad soft for 8a though.

crimpy and technical

Second shot on a 6b+ I must be getting weak.. Not a very good warm up with a hard crux early and some sharp holds, glad the arvo got better from here on.

Had a shocker on this......some days are diamonds....this one was stone
