where does the road go?

Morning all

Another beautiful day here(apart from last nights rain) were now on our way north, heading away from Sella, its been a good time there and we both have enjoyed it immensley. But both feel the time is good to move on so were going up north stopping in at gandia for a few days then going to head up further to a mountain bouldering area called albarrican which is full of deep orange boulders in a pine forrest. a bit like Fontainbleau
but in spain, as its super high up we expect it to be fairly cold in the eves but aron 7-10 during the day so perfect for hard bouldering, Cant wait. A few photos from Sella ending with the road to new pastures

I have since the last post been working on my project at the wild side for a few more days and have fallen off the same move another 5 times, annoyingly if i rest for 30 seconds it goes easyley so it looks like my power endurance isnt up to scratch, its been getting me frustraited and after my last attempt angery so i have taken a step back from it, im happy though as i feel i have learnt a lot from the experiance, havoing never spent that long trying 1 route 9 attempts in total + a few goes working out the moves. its been fun and i think i need to spend more time redpointing harder stuff. but for now im really looking forward to new places with lots of routes to onsight. Top marks and a high five go to Jason for sending the route on his last attempt before striping the route.

We have decided aszwell that Tala is a Crag dog and as such she is a lazy dog spends loads of time sleeping but looks so peacefull when she does.

 As does lucy


I have updated our route map and will be adding some point marks for the places were planning on going to go to.

A warm good bye to everyone we have meet at sella thanks for the poker nights, great food even better company, see you in the future.
