Fall in Frankenjura
Now is the time. Fall is coming and with that the color. It is one of my favorite seasons in the Frankenjura. Here are some pictures of the last two days. More to come and hopefully some landscape again when the leaves are more colorful. Enjoy!
Sautanz – Frankenjura – Germanys first 7b+
33 years after the first ascent by Kurt Albert we did a nice photoshoot at the „Obere Gößweinsteiner Wände“. A small but historic crag in Gößweinstein, Frankenjura. It was the first 7b+ in Germany and is one of the ultraclassics in the Frankenjura. Together with „Schleimspur“ to the left and „Humbug“ to the right, both 7b+ it was the goal for a lot of climbers to to the triology in one day.
My selfmade swing did a very good job and I could be in the wall for a much longer time without my legs dying of sitting too long in the harness.
Enjoy!
Silvretta – Bouldering
A short window of good weather in the Silvretta mountain range. One of the sunny weekends this season.
Tradclimbing in Heubach
For me it was the first time in Heubach. Heubach is an old quarry near Duisburg, Germany. The DAV bought the place and put some bolts in the face climbs. But there are a lot of cracks, too, which are not bolted at all. So pack your gear and go there if you are not afraid of 35m cracks with just one bolt at the end!
Luckily one day we were more than two, so I could jumar up and take some pictures. The red sandstone there reminds me of the deserts in Utah. But everything is green around the quarry, which is a nice contrast. Here are some of the pictures I took, enjoy.
