Felix on one of his climbs (5.9)
 |
After a short but intensive instructions we where ready to drill
on rappelling, belaying and knots. This is both mentally and physically tiring. You always
have to keep your concentration, mistakes are not allowed in these situations. Most of the climbing was done on routes at 5.8 to 5.9 in difficulty (US
scale). The old dry waterfall was a nice place to start, but the field it self is quit
small and we will move to a new place next time. There is a lot of good places for rock
climbing near Lecco and Como, and we will probably try a couple of them during the summer
months. |
