July 19, 2016 - Oh the irony ...

Oh the irony ... this evening at 21h it was still 29°C and I went for a short climb in Roche au Four. 'Four' is the French word for 'oven'.

It did feel like an oven there in the small sector at barely 100m from the parking of the Croix Saint-Jerôme.
It was way too hot to go and find a 7th grade problem, so I did a nice 6C right next to "L'Huître Bleu".

"L'Huître Perlière" is a small, slightly overhanging pillar with marbled slopers. Not exactly ideal in this heat, where you start sweating just by breathing.
Only 6C but it felt like a 7A in these conditions. The marbled slopers were still warm and the boulder heated up the air just around it even more.
