Video - Autumn bleaus

This video contains a handfull of problems that I climbed and filmed before going home over Christmas. While being home, I had a bit of time that I used to edit the footage, between eating and sleeping which my three weeks in Sweden was mostly about.

Now that I´m back in Font, I am struggling to get back in shape. It´s been kinda tough up until this point, but after being blessed with amazing, cold weather (apart from the snow) over the last two days, I think I've reached a turning point. I can feel my body slowly adapting to the climbing and all the walking I'm doing around here and with that, my motivation is also returning. A bit of a relief since I have been worried about not enjoying going out into the forrest as much as I use to.


Featured problems:
Sensation 7B+ - Bois Rond
Peter Pan 7B+ - Rocher du Mauvais Passage
Thriller 7C+ - Rocher des Demoiselles
Le Bivouac assis 7C - Cuvier Est
Welcome to Tijuana 7C - Apremont Envers
Megawatt 7C+ - Franchard Isatis

Chris Schulte trying Le Proueptologue in very poor conditions. It was extremely hard to even do more than two moves in a row before slipping 
off due to the humidity. Therefore Chris had to leave this climbing un-sent (until next time that is...).

Ticino village

Here are some pictures from the village Lavertezzo, nearby Brione in Switzerland. I took them during a weekend-trip Neil and I did in mid October. Unfortunatly we had bad luck with the weather, having to climb in 25 degrees in Chironico on the Saturday and getting rained on in Brione during the Sunday. 16 hours of driving for one and a half days of climbing is a bit to much of a gamble to be worth it. However, I considered my self happy with the trip, climbing three problems I had not done before...

Morning mist setbacks


FotoredigeradFW-003
Stefan Pettersson on his way in to Rocher de Bouligny, luckily unaware of the fact that Amok still is drenched after the morning mist. This came to be one of many days during the late autumn, where we found ourselfs being chased around forrest by fast moving clouds of fog. In the end I got to climb a couple of problems I hadn't done before, which I was very happy with considiring how the day started.
