Yesterday

I went out again to do some stone searching... 2hrs later I was sweaty and tiered, nearly got lost and found 4/5 areas I was looking for.. but alas..nothing really interesting, some smaller stuff but nothing to warrant more investigation.

More orminge


Went out with M after seeing the pictures on his blog. Found this in the area where he was looking..everything from vertical to 1.5m overhanging...the minus: its close to water, someone has used it to "store" their empty beer cans (mind you, all in nice big plastic bags) and the walls are high (up to ca. 8m) with little top/finishing holds. We will see what it ends up looking in more colder temps, a ladder and some cleaning but found maybe up to 5 obvious lines and likely more.
Still hoping to find some blocks or something like a new Orminge :-D
Actually really liked one of the stones M found as well .. fairly low, 1 move wonder.. but looks nice and think everything from establishing yourself in the start to the 1st move will be rather difficult.. shame it was in the sun.

ny close to Orminge

Hope

Went for an "easy" session to K yesterday.. met D and L there which was a surprise... apparently they got tiered of the lack of change at their usual Gym and so wanted to try something new. Did some easy stuff and as per usual when others are around had to try some harder things as well.. even up to a white problem which was totally possible.. so much for a testing session!!!! Warm there as well...but better then nothing! No good. Lucky then that at least my injured fingers feel much better today.. now just need to repair my Lat...

Frustration

YES.. more rest... still have the finger issue going on (right hand) as well as some pain in my left lats when doing pull ups. The regular ie. not climbing, gym is closed for a short holiday and it´s still rather warm.... That really does not leave much to do. :-( Even if the weather is bad one could have been hanging of the BM instead... but not even that! The only constructive thing I have done is drive out to some (for me new) boulder problems to have a look at them and now have a list of areas/problems I would like to try/do! But I want more....

Will take some time off here .. due to injury and higher temps... will see how the body feels in a week or two...

Nacka Golf Klubb



Did some brushing yesterday. 3 nice lines. The first a smaller wall part with a left areté. Did the standing start ca. 6a but the sit looks like a letter grade harder..looked easier. Then a higher overhanging wall, with a obvious line..standing then long way up to ok holds then jugs. S had the key hold in his hands after a while and basically made it a future line. Possible line to the right of it,morpho, and a obvious slab that hardly needed brushing..guess around 7a? Not my thing and tiny edges in warm temps didnt feel promesing.
