Friday 4 Jan

  • Apapart: 30 (V), 32 (V+), 18 (6a), 19 (6a, P.A.) 
  • Cuarto Largo: 48 (6a) 

Sunday 6 Jan 

Up top in Canada del Capricho (numbers from Tanz auf dem Vulkan) 
  • La Rosa: 6 (IV) 
  • Aureola: 20 (V, seemed hard), 19 (V+, top rope) 
  • Fraggel Rock: 13 (IV, stupid route) 

And then a bunch of playing around, scrambling, and light bouldering. 

In general the easy routes here seem to be pretty crappy; but the setting is lovely. Probably a better place to climb 6b+. 


Monday 7 Jan 

Polegre 
  • Sector 2: 1 (V), 4 (V+), 6 (V+) 
  • Sector 1: 3 (6a, both lead-climbing twice, Andrea once in top rope, Greg’s initial lead climb took a more difficult line, Andrea’s beta made the whole thing fun and fun), 9 (V), 1 (V, different line from before, more stemming, greg did it twice because it was so much stemmy-fun).
