Trying to get stronger in Spain

Hazy sun in Catalunya


Most of our climbing experience has been onsight climbing (or attempts...) probably because we love multi-pitch adventures, but also because we haven't pushed ourselves hard, this is definitely slowing our progress on difficulty.


This winter we are trying some red-pointing to increase our self belief and push our comfort zones.

We dont have much experience with the red-point process...for us, it will likely involve shamelessly getting the quick-draws in any-means-necessary! working out the moves and rehearsing, sometimes on top-rope when scared...before trying to lead it, and erm...probably...quite a bit of failure!!


Trying Animal 7a+


Brilliant long lines at El Falco


Views to Siurana, Village crags, Cornudella and Montsant

View from top of Sendero Luminoso 7a/+

One of the many patient crag dogs of Chulilla...no snacks in those pockets soz


Starting the brilliant sector warm up Long Dong John 6b+


Reflections, stroll through the gorge on a rest day, those walls look pretty good! Time to stop resting


looking down Sondaas after cleaning watching someone start the crux of Blue Agave
