Gelida

With arrival of Ren, my climbing intensified considerably last w-end. We went to Fuixarda on Friday, to Gelida on Saturday, and even managed to do a multipitch in Terradets on Sunday. The best of the three was Gelida - perfect sunny spring day. Romarin was flowering around us, sky was blue, and limestone perfect:


Unfortunately overhangs there are hard and i struggled on several climbs - but that is the way of climbing. Notice the new and toxic, homemade African chalk bag, with that the forthcoming roof is no problem!

In Terradets we planned to conquer Los Colores, but finished on a neighboring, painfull and unprotected line. We did toprope the last 6a and finished by the 6b+ of Colores, but I have had better...and warmer days in Terradets.
