2011-02-27 Arbolí – El Cremat

Awesome weather – more shirtless climbing, and a little sunburn too at Arboli’s south-facing El Cremat.

El Cremat

From left: Terra Mitica, La Poma De Newton, Marfantes, Xicarro Xarxot, Anorexia, Bulimia

Warmup on Bulimia - 5+.  Then onto some roof action, 6a Anorexia. Two 6a+ onsights, Xicarro & Marfantes, both with great roof problems.  Glad to say as well that the rock is a lot cleaner now – before there were a lot of breakages, hold and chunks falling of the face, but it’s pretty stable now. 

Xicarro Xarxot, 6a+

Marfantes, 6a+

One drastic block power-move to nail Terra Mitica and then to warm down on some 5+s (Shanghai, Olives Follades) before we go home.  I’ve got my eye on Newton’s Apple, but at 6c+ it looks like I need to train more at the rocodrome.  Right, Meli? Winking smile
