Barenfels climbing

 It was a fantastic, warm, spring day, so we went climbing in the afternoon at Barenfels.

Routes:

  • Steinbrunnenwand: Green River 5b
  • Ostgruppe: Bel Ami 5b
  • Ostgruppe: Level 2 5c+ (g only)
  • Ostgruppe: Oliver Twist 5a (A only)
  • Ostgruppe: Chruetlischwur 6a (g, toprope)
We were, unsurprisingly, not alone (at least until we moved over the Ostgruppe) :-)

We are both still very much getting used to climbing on rock again, so this was good progress.

Falkenflue climbing

 First time outside in the Jura in a looooong time!

Climbing in sector Piazza Grande, we found five routes that shared a common anchor

  • T18 5a
  • Oazapft'is 5b (TR)
  • Freibier 5c+ (TR)
  • La Bete 6a (TR, g only)
  • Kanal Fatal 6b (TR, both of us played at the beginning, but couldn't get past the first slabby bit
We both almost need to re-learn how to climb on rock; it was super nice to be able to do the last routes in toprope and to be able to practice with a smaller mental component.

Also: Falkenflue is great!
