Day one. Creuza de Ma.

Stefan warming up on 'Amore Che Vai' 5b.
|
Me on a nice corner 'Amore Che Vieni' 5c.
|
Stefan on the arête 'L'Amore Cieco' 6a+. Gotta love the color of that rope!
|
Me on the fantastic but too short route 'Il Gorilla' 6b/c. It took me maybe five or six goes over a span of two days to send this one.
|
Stefan's go at 'Il gorilla' 6b/c. He got it on his first attempt.
|
Day two. Stefan and the fantastic peak of Aguglia di Goloritzé.
|

|
Stefan and I on top, different view. Thanks to Frank for taking the photo.
|
When I got up on top, the first thing I did was take this little movie because I had promised a colleage. It was not very big up there, four people could barely fit.
|
Frank und Manuela. A very friendly couple and very good climbers from Germany. They used the coolest version of 'On belay' I've heard. No words, just an odd sound :)
|
Aguglia di Goloritzé... We stood on top of that :)
|
The beach at the bottom. Too bad it was in the shade now, but we had a nice swim anyway.
|
Very rewarding to swim here after a day of climbing.
|
We stayed at a rather nice flat. It was fairly cheap and close to the beach, but had no tv...
|
The only photo from our third day that we spent at Villaggio Gallico.
|
Stefan at Porto di S. Maria on day four. After a few easy climbs we skipped climbing and went swimming instead.
|
Me recharging my batteries for a final stand.
|
Last day. A few hours climbing here at La Muraglia before flying home. The rock was exceptionally good here.
|
Stefan on 'Organi Geniali' 6a.
|
Stefan enjoying the quality rock at La Muraglia.
|
Me on 'Principi del Foro' 6b+.
