April 16, 2023 - Sunny clouds.

It was nice to see Pieter again after hadn't been in the forest for a month or two. Climbing with him is always a lot of fun and this weekend, despite the wet conditions on Saturday, was no different. We met at the Carrefour de Belle Croix this morning to have a climb in Rocher Saint-Germain Ouest. Plenty of boulders and a lot on our lists, but we only managed to top two of them. It was a great day after all, as it was announced to be cloudy, but we had sun all day long. Feels like Spring has finally started.

The warm up in "Le Labyrinthe des Ombres" resulted in a fairly quick ascent for both of us.

After working out the moves of "Lydie'lle" right next to it, the ascent followed soon, also for the both of us. It was motivating, but as the moves on both problems felt so nice to climb, the session already felt like a success and we agreed that anything that followed would just be bonus. I managed to work out all the moves of "Wrong Cops", including the topout, but my skin was so worn out by then and the power level low enough to prevent me from linking it all together.
