No, not a dodgy pre-Xmas pressie buying trip – but the name of a sector in the gorge behind the rifugio.

Overcast, but dry, the conditions were great for climbing but not for topping up the tan.

After warming up on a tough 6b+ I found a sneaky way to do a 7a – eco dildo – sorry!

Jake then cruised another 7c and found it so easy he thought I should have a go. Obviously, he’s forgotten how strong he’s got, or how not strong I am! I was nowhere near….

After another major Jake tussle with a 7c+ (not quite so successful) …. 

We went for “just one last route”, and found that sunset is just after 6 and it gets really dark really quickly!
