5...,6...

not even the first crux worked 2day - from the last move to nothing in 3days???

11am: nice view to the approaching rain-storm. the wall dried afterwards. the problem is that the holds were seeping from the inside of the bloc, and that was the probem no1!!!

 but well, I CAN NOT climb my hardest boulder EVER with wet holds - very saddly NOT... and the weatherforecast looks not as it coud dry the next days... i tried it with aluminiumfolie on the holds, everything. that works well on incutcrimps but not on my open crux-pinches.

"highlander" was dry for weeks, but now the holds in the crux seep from the inside, and it does not look like that it will dry soon - FU*K!

so it looks like i once more missed my window of opportunity, all the same this year - just a week too late - WTF??!!! may i shoud change to snooker or some other "weather-safe" sport ;)

0.5, 1...

and one step back again...

despite feeling strong as never before and not beeing tired at all (in the crux) i lost a toe-hook while climbing into the crux (never happend before!!!).

on the way up, no good...

but conditions were pretty bad as you can see in the pic. AND what was even worser was that there were pretty wet holds.

the wet holds were the main problem, the fog was just not so nice to look at..., "highlander" is down, left - in the cloud...

so on the one hand its nice i climbed so far in such ugly conditions. on the other hand i dont want to climb "nice". i want to climb the LINE!!!
