May 14, 2021 - Little scarab.

You had to leave early and be a little bit lucky to be able to climb dry boulders today. I turned out to be both, or maybe it was simply a right decision to go back to Justice de Noisy.
"Petit Scarabée" has been published recently, and it was one of the boulders that I already found, but couldn't make much out of Tony Fouchereau's original description.
Only a two meter high boulder, and only the first two moves are hard. Hard enough though to be a good 7B.

"Le Poli Soir" hasn't been published yet and Tony's descriptions about all the different variants weren't very clear, but the boulder looks so nice that I couldn't resist to just climb the most logical line on it. It doesn't look hard and I believe that the original proposed grade was supposed to be 6C(7A), but this felt like a very hard 7A, and according to me even 7A+. 
Very beautiful line, a boulder that's begging to be climbed.
