So cold & windy where we parked the car, we descend to the playground – and remove T-shirts!  Start off with a nice 6a – Upri-Refu.

Another onsight, the 25-meter Dos Pedres, 6b+.

Nice.  Now something a little longer – Taraf! 29-meter 6b, also onsighted.  An absolutely beautiful route.

Next up the filthy Cirano De Priorat, 6b.  I couldn’t stick the beginning block move, apart from that steady going.
Last climb of the day, the excellent Matsutake, weighing in at 28-meters of 7a.  What a beauty – my first 7a lead.

Best day climbing for a long while… well done Marc & Alvaro.
