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 😅

@dbread War mir bisher gar nicht aufgefallen. Tolle Neuigkeiten. Direkt mal wieder meine jährliche Zahlung an #TheCrag erneuert...

Hey #climbing bubble 👋,

Which size of Ocún's Ozone HV corresponds to La Sportiva's Skwama Women's in EU 40 / UK 6,5 / US 7,5 ? 🤔

https://sizesquirrel.com does not have any data on this.

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

My #rockclimbing days are in the past, but how can I not get excited about huge expanses of vertical #alpine 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!

Today we climb in the cloud.

Record-breaking El Capitan climber dies in Sierra Nevada fall

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.

"Halfway up The Nose of El Capitan is one of the wildest pendulums in existence"--it's called the King Swing! I shot this way back in 2015 with my Sony a6000 (a CMOS sensor camera) and a 70-200mm lens for a 35mm equivalent of 300mm. Still, it's cropped waaay in. The climber's goal is seen in the fourth frame, grabbing onto a crack in the rock face so they may continue their climb up The Nose and to the top.

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?

Longtail boats are the only way in or out. The cliffs of Railay Beach reject all roads.

Preliminary report on the St Savvas (Kalymnos) anchor, which failed with lethal consequences on 27th March 2026

Suprise: it's not sulphide stress cracking mediated by sulphate reducing bacteria!

Petzl Gougon 10 mm from 2000-2005 should be treated as high risk until we have better data. It might be a bad batch. They might have been used in other crags.

When Campbell Harrison publicly #cameout as #gay two years ago, the pro rock climber said he wanted to be a #rolemodel for future #generations of #queer #young #people. So far, he’s accomplished that #mission

Mountains are entities

Mountains are entities; you get to climb them, but you can’t conquer them. Put your arrogance aside. You can never beat a mountain into submission. If I summit it’s because I was in the right place at the right time.

Tomorrow’s adventure

rock climbing! Heading to #RalphStoverStatePark in Bucks County for some technical climbing practice. Ten pounds lighter than last time I climbed– I’m psyched!!
