Should People Hunt For Sport

creative project work with rock roof

War climb again today with Moritz and we were both quite willing to - well, you could say that very motivated, just too eager to pick up our carefully tended and cherished projects. Moritz in Genesis I and the North German standard roof. Both in Grade 8 - even though Genesis is sure to review very strict.

This time it should be so. Routes trimmed and warmed up I got the first one in my little roof. Bottom super, shaken here, as drawn. Then arrived the attic. Hui, the hook was clipped quickly and it felt so good today. Ouch am, and even with the right of the bar. Choke, Schubb, curse, change of hands. That was just good again. , Heading into the roof and the redemptive handles. One, two, three ... Feet high, held Sloper (was so dressed up!) And zag to the left. Is easy! The last trains stay tuned. Since the roof was in the bag! Juhu! Questioner looks from Moritz in deflation ... "And why you are there always fell out ???". Hm?

Well, then came Moritz and the Genesis. A project since 2006! And today, it should fall - or he, for the job invites you to a 7-week break climbing. The route he can read, as the Pope, the creation story from the Bible. Since the hand, then zag foot cliffs, and so on. Today: First attempt below rumgefummelt rausgeplumst and the trough-to-voltage Sloper erector. Second try below super, Sloper, ARGH!, Shit. Plums! Then again ausgebouldert the job. It decides that it's better with a little momentum going. Third try. Rain drops? Last try! Bottom super, Sloper-divorce **- hole dynamic drüberweg. Bar, cliffs shake. The next flow meter clean. This looks great! Then at the last minute. How can you tie the legs SO?! Oh no! Where is the latest catch? Far away, below ... Oops! Neee Moritz, that's it! Lot more! Top Gewurschtel and swearing. Neeeee! I kommeeee! Only flying is better ....

pity. I thought he had it in the bag. But next time, Moritz!
In August, then again ....


project!

How To Brake In Dansko

is strength or 7.5 times

have one, I still do not understand. Why do you go to actually train in the climbing gym? I could definitely find repeated that intense climbing on the rock makes me much stronger. So too in recent weeks.

After the end of May and early June, Isa and I have made the Alpine valleys around Innsbruck uncertain, I could then promptly (after more than surprised, initially occurring Santander plastic depression) Siebenplusse three points in the hall. When Isa was "worse". She's out climbing more difficult than indoor. Also, I could see once again that we in the north on the rock and are just plastic opinions often set somewhat exaggerated hard. In any case, I was surprised when we were climbing on a rainy day in Innsbruck Tivoli . Not only is the bolted routes there is, I think, have very high quality, and the reviews seem to be more friendly. Just as the rock, even from local "infamous" first ascents assessors / were the opinions of difficulties, the classics usually somewhat below the well-known in the north. Maybes but it's was only the great granite ...

raises the question of who is here "real" with the ratings. The fish Koeppe, with a few coral reefs and boulders in the forest or maybe the OESIS in the mountains, surrounded by thousands of meters of rock climbing. Well, whatever ... Evaluation levels. ;-)

We were also mainly in the Ötztal and Zillertal. Both valleys are well known for her countless climbs. By the way, I found it remarkably comfortable, that you are not there as climbers do not like an alien appears. Ahhchja ...

particularly in the Zillertal, in more detail in Ginzling Zemmgrund it was great. The nasal wall high above the village was very ingenious. Best rock, great tours and beautifully located. Despite the hot day it was up there very pleasant. Here are some impressions of the gibs nasal wall rock rich .

Oh, my Isaschatz up there, incidentally, a project open ...* cough * Well, next time's cuts determined by the edge!

In Ötztal we were at slightly unstable weather conditions at the wall angel, which is characterized by an extremely difficult ascent. Also the base of the wall, with its pot-flat, Large meadow really an imposition. Way too much comfort for alpine climbers.

have imagined exactly what a lot of other climbers and so it was full as in the best times in the hall. We are still quite a lot of climbing routes and then later still, the sun came out enjoyed on the lawn. Overall, a very populous and popular rock-climbing, but the very worthwhile routes on offer.

Finally, we are rumgewandert a bit in the Stubai Alps. For such a real wall, and the peaks were around us, lurking threatening rain clouds and thunderstorms to authoritative.

So we decided to look a little off the many ways our pleasure. Only the descent into a trough was slightly longer, steeper and especially wet as first thought. Who would have thought, with so much snow up there. But was great fun because the rain spared us and the dumplings at the hut were also delicious!
