Bouldering in Cap Gris NezAt the bottom of the cliff, you can find some good bouldering. Bring a crash or two and some good spotters, because the landing is generally not so good as on this boulder.

Climbing in the wildernessJarek climbing in the rocky wilderness of gorges d'apremont, fontainebleau. LOTS of boulders in this area, and lots of circuits. Sometimes hard to find your way around. This area dries very quickly after rain (and we needed that!).

Falaise d'AnseFalaise d'Anse as seen from le Frachet. The climbeable part of the rock is behind the obvious chimney at the left - 800m of excellent quality rock waiting for you ;-)
The part seen on this picture is not developed, I guess because of birds protection..?

Girl at the waterfallIn the close neighbourhood of the crag of Chambly you find the Cascades du Hérisson, a beautiful series of waterfalls on the Hérisson river. Though very touristic, still a very nice half-day hike to do on one of your resting days. This picture is taken at closest fall, the cascade de l'Eventail. By the way, the valley along the hike is bordered with beautiful rocks, but no routes on it .. :(
Technical details: Minolta Maxxum/Dynax 7D camera with Minolta 17-35/2.8 D lens at 35mm. Shutter time 1/4, f32, iso 100

Desperate reachHow does your face look like when you're standing above the first bolt, purely friction, no space to move your balance, but you just can't reach the second bolt..? (Slightly modified version of a previous shot.)

Vade retro SatanaUnknown climber in Vade retro Satana, 5b. Though this traverse is the easiest of three pitches, a lot of people do not feel comfortable because of the "airy" circumstances and the long bolt distances.
