San Vito to Ragusa, via Selinunte

After 10 days of unpredictable and changeable weather our time in San Vito Lo Capo has come to an end. Despite several days of hanging around waiting for the weather to improve, the time passed very quickly, and I certainly, was not yet ready to move on. We had extended our stay by an extra … Continue reading San Vito to Ragusa, via Selinunte →

Climbing in San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily

We were last in Sicily only 10 months ago, but we had such a good time that it was high on our list of places to return to. However, this visit has not had the same idyllic conditions, our first three days were almost non-stop rain, high winds, thunder, and single digit temperatures. It was … Continue reading Climbing in San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily →

San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily. 2018

In March 2018 we had an immensely enjoyable trip to Sicily. The long limestone edge at San Vito Lo Capo kept us entertained for days with an abundance of fantastic lines. We were there in March and we rarely came across any other climbers, despite perfect conditions for climbing both in and out of the … Continue reading San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily. 2018 →

Today was the last of 4 days climbing in Provence. We visited 6 limestone crags and each one had a very different style of climbing. We could easily spend a week just at one crag. I am sure we will be back!
Had a quick visit to Notre Dames des Anges, le Grandes Mur Rouge today, and was very impressed with routes. Jon did one 40m 6b which was fantastic, but all the other lines look equally good. We will have to have a full day here before the end of our trip.
I think I need to work on my lock-offs! Autumn training is about to commence!
Everyone in the house is avidly watching the #europeanchampionships #munich2022 #sportclimbing competition! I am so pleased @ifsclimbing had the livestream on their website.
Jon approaching the crux on ‘Regarde les baleines passer’ (7b). This was his second 7b redpoint this summer, a new personal best!
Woohoo! We have just had a great day climbing at Remingy. After one session working the route, Jon successfully redpointed his first 7b in France. On top of that, for the first time ever, I led every route I climbed today. Not bad for someone who prefers a top rope! It is great to feel like we are making progress with our climbing again 😊.
