Trail: Gorges du Loup loop
Continuing the training for the Ultra-trail of Mt. Fuji, Anna and I added 43.5 km of Trail today to an already long week. We have been slow despite the pleasant weather and a good trail. We made a long loop going up and down in the the Gorges du Loup as a recce for next […]
Climbing: video of Anna in Arrow Head
Saturday Anna and I went to the Mesa Verde sector in the Gorges du Loup. This nice little cliff along the river has 30+ routes between 6c and 8a+ and most of them are excellent. This time we made a video of Anna climbing Arrow Head, probably the most famous 8a in the Gorges.

I still need to make some volume training before trying new project […]
Climbing in Deverse
