Calamès – Sector Initiation

The way to the sector… harder then to climb

Lead Soloing

This is what you normally have to avoid in any case before you take of the rope… so I had to lead up solo one more time to get the rope home.

Climbing Le Plantaurel > Arabaux

Last weekend I was testing the first time lead solo with my modifed Grigri at Arabaux.

For better orientation of new climbers in the area I made a presentation using google satellite view.
