  1. @tlohde I learned to lead climb in Scotland, in the early 2000s - there were no bolts around so I learned placing gear 😆.

    Mentored by a guy in his mid 70s at the time (vale! ).

    And yes, climbing rocks can be a long, long term thing....

  6. On thursday, I went to climb the " #Supercrack of #heidelberg " (by Wolfgang Güllich) with a friend. The #rock, even though similar sandstone according to my limited geology, was so different than in Palatinate, more dense, smooth and tough.

    The crack is a handcrack with little crimps or holes, and almost no feet. I ... died. A lot. 3 moves at maximum, then i had to fall and rest. In the end, to retrieve a overcammed friend, I had to prusik 2-3 meters. Well, I learn 😅

  20. Experience: I fell 12 metres while bouldering and smashed my pelvis into pieces
    By Emily Brough

    It was clear it was broken. I could feel the bones grinding together as the paramedics strapped me to a gurney

  23. My days are in the past, but how can I not get excited about huge expanses of vertical granite like this?

    There are some people visible on the summit if you look carefully which gives you the sense of scale. That’s a big rock!

  31. Reminder; if you are into the spending time in the #outdoors (#hiking, #backpacking, #trailrunning, #camping, #kayaking, #rockclimbing, you name it), it's even more important for you to have medical training and carry the right equipment than it is for the average person. Take a class, buy (or, better, build) a #firstaid kit, and carry it. Weight is a number; don't let being #ultralight stop you from carrying the right stuff for each trip. The farther out you go, the more you should take.

  35. How far away is the first 9b boulder?

    In 2016, Nalle established the world's first 9a/ V17. Now, 10 years later, Elias has proposed the first 9a+/ V18.

    If future repeat ascents confirm the grade, the historical trend of the world's hardest boulder problems suggests the first 9b could arrive in roughly 12–15 years.

    Do you think we'll see a 9b boulder before 2040?
