Climbing at Court

The (frustratingly overly pessimistic) weather forecast killed our original plans for the weekend, so we adjust with some bouldering on Saturday and climbing on Sunday.

After a leisurely start and good breakfast we set off to Moutier. From there the nice walk through the gorge to the crag at Court, which we had to ourselves. Fun new addition: someone brought up a little garden table and a couple of chairs, so there was a fancy place to sit for lunch. :-)

The climbing, this time using the grades from the Tourenportal:

  • Bottom bit of Multidirecte to get up to the band: 4c (A lead, g followed in trail running shoes)
  • Felix to the first stand: 5c+ 
  • Voie du Milieu: 5c+ (both lead and then again toprope)
  • Bottom part of Felix to get back up to the band after lunch: 5c+ (g lead, A following)
  • La Normale all the way to the top: 5c+, 5b in the top part.
  • Grivel

As always in Court: fun climbing which requires much more brain than brawn. Good stuff!
