Went #climbing at a building site (well, part of it is already open as climbing gym)

Can’t wait until the whole thing is finished.

Hard to keep track of holds on this thing sometimes… #climbing

A fun problem I set on the gym’s spray wall #climbing

Yay! During yesterday's PT session, we managed to bend my knee 90° for the first time since surgery. A small step towards #climbing again.

Bonus perk: I can put on socks and shoes without tricks or assistance now .

Neue Staffel DOK - Hoch Hinaus: Das Expeditionsteam Grönland

Sechs Abenteurerinnen aus der Schweiz haben ein Ziel: Sie wollen Berge in Ostgrönland zu besteigen, die noch niemand zuvor bestiegen hat. Nach vier Tagen auf hoher See bleibt dem Expeditionsteam nicht viel Zeit, um sich vom Segeln und der Seekrankheit zu erholen. Umgeben von Fjorden, Eis und steilen Wänden suchen sie nach den idealen Kletterrouten.

Veteran Becomes First Double-Amputee to Climb Highest Peak on Every Continent: Conquering the 7 Summits

Interesting article about climbing and OCD.
Fear is certainly a big part of the sport, particularly lead climbing, and learning to deal constructively with fear is one of the most rewarding parts.

Ran a short rope protection and security course for some hill walking and scrambling friends of mine today. Included improvised harnesses, Italian hitch, clove hitch, assisted hoist, anchors, rappelling, classic belay, belays, prusicks, basic rescue and more. Hopefully everyone came away more confident about having to deal with an emergency situation. Anyway, it was a lot of fun and laughs in the strong winds.

Belgian climbers Sean Villanueva O'Driscoll and Nico Favresse in what is possibly the best advertising ever for Patagonia. #climbing

Went climbing today for the first time in ages. The extra weight I put on at Christmas was definitely having an effect on how well my arms were working at hauling my lump up the wall. (And I already suffer with a disproportionate body weight to muscle strength ratio!)
I did a lot better than I anticipated, and stayed for longer, so wins all around.
