    what's the name of the crag at 5:00 ?

    • @OnceUponAClimb
      @OnceUponAClimb  Рік тому +1

      It’s not actually a climbable crag, but a troglodyte village called Les Grottes de Calès

    Question: what is the bike trailer you used to carry Arthur? Thanks!

      @OnceUponAClimb  3 роки тому +1

      Hey Dan, Thanks for the kind words, and hope you get out there soon on your own adventures. The trailer is made by Tout Terrain, it's pretty pricy, but I've not found anything that does a better job.

    It feels impossible to even aspire to climb 9c, but acquiring the ability to ride days end and negotiate 8b+ with your family is a goal we can at least plan for.

    Great video ! What's the name and the location of that slab crag around 5:40 ?

    • @OnceUponAClimb
      @OnceUponAClimb  3 роки тому +1

      It's Mouriès, famous for very hard, crimpy slab and wall climbs.

    Sauf erreur de ma part, le 8a du lac de Saint Rémy n'est pas " le caniche de l'info" mais " manneken miss".
    Suite à cette erreur gravissime, il faut recommencer toute la vidéo ;-)

      Ahhhhhhhhhh! I wasn't sure about that one, but the topo we had didn't have a name for the route to the left, so I crossed my fingers that it was that one. Like you say, time to delete the film and start again! Better still, lets just do the whole trip all again!!!

      ​@@OnceUponAClimb Also if I'm not mistaking the 7c in Fontvieille is more likely to be "L'échine de porcelaine" than "Shampooing à l'argile" which is a close-by 7b+

    • @OnceUponAClimb
      @OnceUponAClimb  3 роки тому +1

      @@aleksandr12 oops again! We've only got the Alpilles tope for Fontvieille (is there a new topo somewhere?) and it only has one route listed on that piece of rock. I have to admit that it felt very tough for 7b+... though to be honest, it felt pretty hard for 7c too!

    • @aleksandr12
      @aleksandr12 3 роки тому

      ​@@OnceUponAClimb I don't think there's a new topo but you can find an additional topo describing for each sector a few new routes and connexions that have been bolted.
