Becci's first multipitch leads
A short, well-protected route on the Guggerköpfle — the right place to lead for the first time.
Via Esculapio as a three
A good route on the Padaro. I led it, but there wasn't much to place.
Via Elda on the Paolo wall
A perfectly nice route. Franzi was a bit grumpy, and the Paolo wall is the Paolo wall.
Inntalsynfonie on the way to Sulden
A good route on the Geierwand as a stop-off. Franzi led the hard pitch.
Die Pflicht der Ehemänner: met at the top
A good end to the Graz week. My parents climbed a different route and we met exactly at the exit.
Hochzeitstanz: a relaxed family day
Long walk in, very good route. My parents climbed the line next door.
Fuchswirtweg: after failing on the Überdosis
A relatively easy route up the Nadelspitz. Nice, nothing special — and exactly right for the day.
Rantamplan: Maxi forgot his rock shoes
A good route with the lads right by the sea near Bilbao. Sharp limestone and approach shoes do not mix.
Lara: a genuinely bad route
Polished, loose, a via ferrata directly overhead and rockfall to match. Plus a thunderstorm coming in.
Caliope: restaging our first photo in Arco
A nice easy route at Ceniga — and a photograph that now exists twice.
Via Sabina: misread and completely overrun
Far too easy for the day and full of people. Perfectly nice otherwise.
Il canto dell'Indria: 15 pitches of sustained grade 5
Long and consistently demanding. Franzi was effectively done from about pitch seven.
Lucky Six: leading practice instead of the Dülfer
The real objective fell through on weather. An easy, well-protected route for Franzi to lead.
Reindl-Kante: couldn't find the start of the Buena Vista
The plan was the grade 8 next door. Pleasant climbing instead.
La Ceniga Rossa: a quick afternoon route
After rappelling off Le Scalette dell'Indria after one pitch, we got on this instead.
Via Artemis: the rappel is the highlight
Lost on the approach, very good otherwise. Fully bolted these days, so cams are redundant.
Via dei Ciclamini: first and last pitches unroped
Very easy climbing at both ends, and the middle feels like the Sonnenplatten.
Caldo Inverno: last pitch hard for the grade
Arco, and the route saves the hardest bit for the end.
Regensburger Weg: a short multipitch in Franconia
Kastlwand, short and unremarkable. The first route in this logbook.
