Getting high

Selection Door, 7a

As mentioned yesterday, higher was the aim. Did this nice problem, which ended up being not that high, but mentally it felt way different.

Warmer today then yesterday..time for sunscreen! Tried more stuff, but felt powerless...time for a restday!

Supposed to rain tomorrow, we will see.

I wanne get high...

Really! We seem to have a tendency to look for rather short problems,safe to the ground. Maybe we need to change that ...? Warm today..too warm maybe. Still a lot of people out there. Both do a 7a rather quick, nice problem. After that we both felt rather tried. Felt ok on a 7a+ if it were not for the last move! of the 6b exit....feels not doable..strange? Even tried a 6b trv. slab thing..superhard! We blame it on the sun.....

Sun!

Woke up to sun and melting snow. Getting the car down went smooth as well. In the area a lot of blocks were wet but we went ahead anyway,getting a little lost again until finally finding the area we were looking for 2 days ago. As it turns out we were ca.10m off from finding it before. Some nice problems here..did the warmup thing then tried some harder stuff...went well for Mr. T but for me my head started to play with me..so no go on anything. Everything hurts, we will see what the weather says for tomorrow.

Forced Rest Day

Discovering 1 disadvantage living higher up on the mountain....snow...dont think we will make it down the mountain today. Got to check our food supplies..oh FUN! Happy Easter!

Just "oh no"

Earlier start..wanted to do as the guide says and park correct so we did that..ended up walking for at least 1 hr uphill,then searching for the blocks..at which point it started snowing! We still get lost easy as we estimate the distance between problems to be longer then they are. Ended up trying a 7a+/b as it was a roof and dry. After that just walked around looking att the other areas as more snow came down more and more. Then back downs..so it ended up more of a walking day...rest tomorrow as more snow seems on the way.

Oh no we are lost

Started the day with -3 degrees. The plan was to check out the 1st sectors.. 1-9 to see whats on offer & try some. Started ok with us doing a 7a, did the crux move 1st try but then my head got in the way. Then down to a 6c+ that I felt did not suit me well..tried Dr. Crimp(7b),move 1&2 possible but then hard. The plan was sektor 9 but we walked wrong & 1 of the maps is wrong. Mao lots of footwork in rather warm sun. Back at the car food. Then some more walking & manage a 6c+ rather quick, then over to Dr. med Dent (7b+) that I was keen to look at. In the end tried it...felt hard & the slopers slippery,maybe due to the sun setting? We are now in our house again contemplating tomorrows moves..

Oh no we are doomed..(revised)

At least one could think so. In Chironico now, apparently they had 20cm new snow up at 1000m..which made driving in a car with normal tiers a bit scary. But we started in Italy ..after T played around on the car radio for 20min he had to grudgingly admit that radio here was a different thing with either lots of talk or Eurodisco! We looked at some blocks..looks wet. Driving up over the current snow border on supersmall roads felt so so..only a drop of several 100 meters. But the place we are staying at is supernice and big! We will see what tomorrow brings...
