Hidden pillar near Rjukan

Average Rating = 4.15/5 Hidden pillar near Rjukan

We found this detached and steep pillar near Rjukan. After my friend had led the thing it started shaking and cracking. I was just about to s--- my pants once some water started flowing and the shaking stopped.

Topping out to the Crowds

Average Rating = 3.00/5 Topping out to the Crowds

Usually you'll be in the flash lights but I decided to do things the other way around. We were just topping out on Ticket Danger.

A view to Punta Agellu in Col du Bavella, Corsica

Average Rating = 3.20/5 A view to Punta Agellu in Col du Bavella, Corsica

The face has about a dozen shortish routes suitable for half days work. Walk in takes approximately one hour. We did Voie Masino (TD-, 120m) which has steady climbing in the 5+/6a level. It's situated on the right half of the highest wall and starts with an obvious diedre.

Approaching Kirchlispitze in Rätikön

Average Rating = 3.96/5 Approaching Kirchlispitze in Rätikön

This face hosts some of the hardest multipitch climbs in the world. Silbergeier (300m, 8b+), Unendliche Gesichte (380m, 8b+), Mathis route(200m, 8b) and so on. 90% of the routes are harder than 6b. The picture has only one third of the face. It continues to the left with same quality.

The overhanging Schweizereck face seen from below

Average Rating = 3.57/5 The overhanging Schweizereck face seen from below

The face right of the Kirchlispitze. None of its six long routes is easier than 6c+. Hardest being New Age (130m, 8a+) and easiest Kasama (150m, 6c+). Intifada (220m, 7a+) is the stamina fest. It has 8 pitches and 7 of them are harder than 6c+.

Looking down after 3rd pitch

Average Rating = 3.00/5 Looking down after 3rd pitch

Although the pitch was graded mere 5.9, the good runouts made it feel somewhat harder. I only needed two quickdracs and one cam for the whole 30m of climbing. The two 8mm bolts were placed in 1986. You'll find this route in Chamonix, France.

Camping below the south face

Average Rating = 3.00/5 Camping below the south face

Aiguille du Midi can get a bit crowded during summer season. Camping is officially forbidden but many people still do it. One nasty thing about camping on the glacier is having a dump. Where would you hide in here?

The upper slabs of the route

Average Rating = 3.00/5 The upper slabs of the route

After you tackled the offwith and some chimneys below you'll get to this nice little featureless 5.10 slab. I tried it once and slid down. Frustrated, I asked my friend to take some pictures to give me more motivation and I managed to do it. The lone rusty bolt on this short pitch is situated at 7m or so.

A view on the slab pitch from below

Average Rating = 0.00/5 A view on the slab pitch from below

I clipped only one of the double ropes since I really didn't like the looks of the bolt. The party after us asked me to set up a top rope for them for pretty obvious reasons. Higher up you can see some of the typical granite formations in Corsica. There are weird horns and plenty of other stuff around.

Olhave is the top place in Finland. Sweet granite, plenty of finger size cracks. In the background you can see a climber on Kantti. The most famous route in Finland.

People hiking to Cosmiques hut

Average Rating = 3.75/5 People hiking to Cosmiques hut

The two south faces of Aiguille du Midi. A very popular spot in Chamonix since it has very easy access and the routes are in rather sporty 5+ to 6c grade range. If the range feels too easy, you may try Ma Dalton, which is a 6 meter roof crack. It goes free at 7b+. The left face is 120m and the right one 200m.

The crux of the route

Average Rating = 3.50/5 The crux of the route

It seems much easier than it really is. The shape of the crack makes climbing more interesting. But the mental crux awaits few pitches higher if you're not prepared... The route can be found in Corsica, an island south of France

Climbers getting ready on Pointe Lachenal

Average Rating = 3.50/5 Climbers getting ready on Pointe Lachenal

A short downhill slog towards Italy from Midi cable will bring you to Pointe Lachenal. It's a very nice spot if the weather is fine. Good solid granite. The black dots below the face are climbers.

Leading an easy traverse in Finland

Average Rating = 2.00/5 Leading an easy traverse in Finland

Olhava is one of the most beautiful crags in the world. I've visited places all over Europe and I still hold my opinion. There are routes for perhaps a week if you lead trad in the 7a/5.12- range. Plenty of good 5.8-5.10s.
