structural engineer closes his eyes... :shock:

that guy sure trusts his balance walking on those beams. Notice only one guy used the safety lines. I wanted to go to El Chorro when I was in Spain but the guidebook seemed to indicate that most of the areas were closed for climbing because you have to walk along the railways to get to them and people get fined. Despite the ban I think locals still climb there regularly.
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.

Except for where he seems to trip at the beginning.


An approach like that would never fly in Canada or the States.

There are sections of that approach I'd want a belay for! Holy Smack!

I'm looking at this and part of me is going "holly crap" but the other part is thinking that its not much different than a scramble in the rockies.

from what I hear, the Rockies are in desperate need of an epoxy rainfall to make it safe/enjoyable...

Let it freeze Fred.


Let it freeze. :D






Truthfully, the stuff we climbed wasn't that bad. Though comparing to the mess around here makes most choss piles look good.
