Montserrat.. nope BCN Tunnel Climbingwoodzy | 23 June, 2006 08:46
So the goal was Montserrat today... but between getting up late and taking the wrong train to Montserrat... um... we ended up at the tunnel (well not really the tunnel...) it was "outdoors" :) Very sweaty day...
Montserratwoodzy | 17 June, 2006 08:23 Scariest conglomeration of rock ever... the size of the conglomerate ranges from VW sized rocks, to small river like pebbles glued together by some kinda magic natural concrete. Maybe the Romans just made the whole mountain and its some giant joke ;) Scary rope drag... you really do have to worry about sharp edges here. Got there kinda late, but climbed one 3 pitch route. Here is a view of the basic idea... it was all 5.easy climbing except for one 7 foot dyno from conglomerate to conglomerate (nothing in between) on an overhang... so thats why its a 6a. The most run out climbing I have done... I clipped 5 bolts in 50m. 3 of them were around the 6a move (within 10ft).

Andonno - First real climb(s) back!woodzy | 08 June, 2006 07:57
Andonno, Italy is amazing! The climbs we did were amazing (limestone is so wierd!) and the national park was just absolutely stunning! Its such an amazing experience to be sitting in the middle 3000m peaks and watch the fog lift off of each one and reveal their ridiculousness.
Climbing... We climbed
Here is a view of Parco Apli Maritime very close to Andonno Italy...
And here is a view of a portion of the Main wall in Andonno. Le capre Ovali starts left of the big flake toward the ground, and goes up the second pominent black streak to the left. I'm kinda bumed we didn't get to climb here more, but we were kinda tired from our long trip through other parts of Italy, and Paro Alpi Maritime was absolutely amazing... Its not all about climbing right ;)
