Eidetind, day two: practising belays
An easy line the day after the first route. Franzi led it.
Machine-translated from the German original. The German version is the one I actually wrote.
Second day on the Eidetind, this time an easier line — and with a clear purpose.
Building belays is best practised where the climbing isn’t occupying you. If every pitch is demanding you stop thinking properly about the anchor; if it’s easy you have time to build the thing cleanly and then look at what you’ve actually made.
Franzi led, which matters more again for the same exercise: whoever builds the anchor the other person hangs off thinks about it differently.
A well-spent day, even if it doesn’t sound like much.
