Getting off the one track mindset

So we've been on the road now for six weeks, and kind of gorging ourselves on climbing, with a 3 days on and 1 day off pattern, recently this become 2 days on and 1 day off, then 1 day on and OMG we need some proper rest!! So we've slowed things down a bit, and explored a little bit without the rope.

First, on foot, a walk through the bottom of the gorge to get a different perspective, from Couloir Samson along the river.

Lush valley floor

Pick a line, any line, 300m of uninterrupted classic crack, corner or face climbing on l'Escales.

Watching the high liners do their thing in early evening

Then by kayak from Lac Saint Croix

Then having a look around the pretty (but touristy) Moustiers

Well that's enough resting!! Let's go climbing!!!
