Les enfants gâtés

This is what the Todra-leg was all about. Some sublime outdoor climbing, on some monster cliffs.

You can just about make-out Tom, seconding Les enfants gâtés, a 5C on Asamer, up in the top-right corner.

It was I who was l’enfant gâté — spoiled rotten — on this trip, getting to lead every route that we did; the perfect opportunity to test-out my new gear.

We were working off a fifteen-year old guide book from Guy Abert, who equipped a lot of the routes out here. I hope his map-drawing skills have improved over that time, because finding some of these routes, let alone identifying them, was nigh-on impossible at times!

But once they were uncovered, putting some chalk on this abrasive rock was rad, to the power of sick.

More Todra action.
