After a hard week in the climbing gym, Zigor Arteaga and me, me went to Cavallers, this is a grand valley in Pyrenees. It is everything that everybody wants for summer, Rock, river and “Buen Rollo”.
Last Friday after driving 5 hours, we arrived there and we met with Maider and Aritz brothers, Iker and Laia, and some friends from Azkoitia, where is a litlle town, near Eibar, the town where I live. On Saturday, we woke up, early and we went climbing to a really nice slap, close to every routes are bolted, so it is really safe for climbing, but you also climb clean routes with stoppers and camalot . And after a nice lunch and swimming in the fresh water, we went to nice sector it calls African Wall, it was nice, some different routes like Smith Rock or an 8a+ short, bouldery and strange crack. But the best was when we climbed YU-YU, a route with two pitches, but the second one is like climbing in Yosemite, A crack before the roof, the only thing that could be better? The route clean, but it doesn’t matter, it is amazing. We did a plan for doing bouldering during the midnight, but we were so tired and we were on Sunday bouldering. I didn’t know the problems grade but it was funny, find a boulder, and if it looks nice, just try…. So Aritz and Iker are really funny and really fanatics, they love cracks and clean routes, and I had only climbed one time a clean route, last sprint in Vall di Mello, and I really don’t know jet, to understand the crack system, techniques and camalots sizes ( so I have to try many times) ; But Iker and Aritz during the dinner they always are talking about, crack 2 (camalot size) or 1, ¡fuck! This crack, with 4 sizes is shit! My fingers …it was really funny. And after a nice weekend each one have been doing that they must…Zigor and Me, go home.(Work and training thinking in the next weekend), Some went to Paris, for bouldering and visiting the museums, some to Mallorca for climbing, party and Deep water solo. And Maider and Aritz, more climbing in Cavallers. ¿And now? ¡Lets go training!! Y ahora después de un fin de semana muy guapo y gratificante, toca lo que toca, cada uno a su lugar, pero siempre con la ilusión de que el siguiente objetivo está en mente, y llegará en poco tiempo.  |
