Premier Str8line Chamonix Camp * MEGABLOG TR *

Yeah, good times were had indeed. The only problem is that place ruined me. Ruined me in the sense that everything will now seem so small in comparison.

those words just brought tears to my eyes.. . they are not only big, they are just extremely beautiful. I love those warmish coloured granite needles and pillars. compact rock with only few and distinct fissures. since the first time I've been there I almost havn't gone anywhere else anymore. although before that, I ventured pretty much all over the alps.

edit: huh! I just realized, that's actually true - I havn't been anywhere else ever since. except for one 3 days at the kripp and 3 days in gastein. did I get stuck? I might need to get it moving a little again.

Honestly one of the best photos I've seen of Supercouloir.

FKNA GNAR WOOT TR

Nope, check your own enlargement the guy visible (clearly) is actually seconding. See the belayer ~20 m above, he has built a rock-belay (which is wise ;-)).

Bumpage for good times and to remind the maggots travelling out to Gordy's camp next week what they're letting themselves in for.
