Climbing!

Today we split into two teams and climbed side by side routes on the Eperon de Chemin du Roy. François and I climbed "A la Recherche de Peter Pan", and Chloe, Barbara and Marcel climbed "Hélène et les garçons". Peter Pan is another short, but fantastic climb. It is on absolutely incredible yellow limestone with some steep moves and a slightly scary crux pitch at the end of a big dihedral. I was satisfied to do the super long and beautiful P4 on sight.

Afterwards, it was a quick trip to Casset to the excellent creperie for Crepe Normands and Crepe Abeilles. Woo!
