Easier access or substitution?

I'd say easier access. getting laid is in no way coming near to riding a magic carpet!

Can imagine Canada was a gas. Nik told me that the weather was perfect these days and all. Not much climbing here - I'm stuck in the gym but after all I do work on getting back my lead head again . I really hope that's gonna pay out in Sardinia then. Post some more pics from Canada! Envy level has sunken below standard level... Otherwise: the usual nice one - Daniel
Canada's a big place...
Weather's gorgeous on this side. So far only been climbing plastic, but am off for a long weekend of wicked climbing. forcast for 25C for the next 5 days. Today's 28C...

Considering you live in Germany, "easy access" sounds... uneasy. ...anyway, munching the carpet is more magic than riding it... or something like that.
Oh- we're back from the USA. Now I know who stole the sunshine.

Yeah, something along that thin line...
Actually, I did get self-modded in that case. I decided that the comment didn't match the already low standards I hold for my posts, so I just deleted it. Obviously I wasn't fast enough but I refuse to care

WELCOME BACK!
Heikino and I already did extended research to check if you're lost or such (we checked for Paolos last post in the Italien forum, good to know one's adddictions). So how was the trip and where are the pictures?

Sorry guys, don't have the pictures all loaded up yet - Paolo got a new camera/software and I haven't quite got my snazz up yet to figure it all out. Maybe he can post some up..
Great trip though! Very little climbing, to be honest - mostly fishing, drinking and visiting old friends. We did climb a couple of days in Red River Gorge and Colorado. I'll try to put up a couple of pictures with Paolo and his 2 rainbow trout!! YUM!!

Did a few days climbing in Val di Mello (all on Sasso Rameno), met Fillippo and his very lovely lady there, but just hiked with them (I couldn't get out of work early, plus got lost on way so was, oh, about 2 days late... still not at Fillippo's level, according to reports; plus it rained before I got there, so they didn't get to climb earlier anyway).
Some pics maybe later from wife of guy I climbed with. And in a couple of weeks Sardinia with Tisar.
Sorry to hear US was a bust for the dynamic duo, at least as far as climbing goes. Did Paolo do Ro Shampo?
P.S. Don't get your snazz in the carpet, it'll be a worse mess than booger in the rug.

yeah, the golden october is here!
sunday we enjoyed a perfect day in ettringen. marvellous friction and blue skies lifted everyones spirits.
olov, not held back by a finger injury, did some impressive drytooling ascents of otherwise techno routes.
the day ended with a mass ascent of halber mann, a route that was on the menu for the eurofreaks gathering already. now see what you missed!
I could finish a project (as usual...) and make some good progress on a very sporty combination of routes (about 8a+) in the second grotto.

hello!
back from my week in Kalymnos followed by another week of climbing in Sicily : awesome limestone and NO ONE (we visited 8 different areas and met ABSOLUTELY NO ONE!!! No kidding at all! If you want to be quiet, go climb in Sicily!)
I'll try to write a trip report from this sicilian climbing week.
to uasunflower : could you PM me an address so I can send you a CD with the Seynes and Jonte pics (for Xmas maybe...)

and are the holes in the wall opposite made by the same enthusiastic dry-toolers or the less-enthusiastic, falling dry-toolers?

To date there are two routes fixed and two other projects in working progress.
The route in the picture is an old aid line and if I am not mistaken it has been free climbed... It should be around F7b I have been told? Why, you want to go there?
Actually the white wall is an old house built inside the cave and who knows where the holes came from
