Last weekend I climbed a rock route, some 20 pitches, perfect sunny 10°c weather. The detail are unimportant but the last 5 pitches we failed upwards. As you said, a lack up planning. We toped out at nightfall and slept in a cable car station. And now I was very happy to have paid a few extra bugs for gear that made the night just a little bit more comfortable.Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03549207318133353662noreply@blogger.com
