  1. Has another greeeat day in #tradclimbing routes (only seconding) in #palatinate with a great friend and a new-to-trad climber. There was a SUPERB 6- crack that was ~20m or so of perfect hand jams and a few fist jams, a slabby 6- that was super hard for me (only 3 falls at the same crux spot, I'm so proud!) and a nice 5 for wind down. Adding to that a great sunset experience, it was perfect day really.

  6. Even after I had to carry out the marriage of two of my friends on Saturday - and getting back to the hotel at 4 in the night - we took advantage of the fact that we already were in #palatinate ... And went "climbing"

  11. Yesterday, we had another super neat #Sandstone #Climbing experience in #Palatinate. The reaaaally long and big Burghalder Fels has some great #crack climbing and an almost-chimney that´s fun. Starting in the late evening, it was cool enough, and the late-summer sun brought out beautiful colors. It was 22:00 until we were back at our cars 😂 .

    We tried the typically-alpine twin ropes to second simultaneously, and that worked super well!

  16. Last Monday was a "getting my trad on" day at Wintours Leap on the Fly Wall with Mark. I'd actually seconded this route before and remembered it felt quite burly in places. What I hadn't remembered, despite the guide's warnings, was that the top pitch required quite so much big gear - having run out of big hexes, overcammed my remaining big cam, and placing both a decent Tricam and a slightly dodgy nut in smaller placements, it still felt a bit run out towards the top. Still, comedy gear, confidence and a touch of hubris will see you right...

  21. In total this was a superb evening - a nice "Wanderer" 4 to warm up, a simple crack in top rope to train placing gear without risk, and a really hard 6+ dihedral crack just after sunset to finish the day. Abseil with headlamps 🪔🧗‍♂️🤣.

    I'm really looking forward to slowly get into leading easy trad routes here - and I feel so accomplished already seconding so hard stuff 😯

    Why is this so fun? Why is that rock so beautiful?

  35. I was in North Wales again this weekend working on our climbing club hut. We did manage to get out for some climbing yesterday after we had finished all our jobs. I supported a couple of novices getting their first experiences of leading on a really mellow route. The weather was amazing for this time of year.
