The new adventures from Ticino

Before I say hello to you, I have to say: sorry. I don't know why, but I forgot to push the release button of my camera. I'm really sorry for that tiny photo booty!

Hello folks.


As some of you know I have been in Ticino for the past few days. It was a delicious cocktail of good conditions, nice old&new friends and tons of cool problems.

Kaier.

Again and again ...

... I found my self among the boulders of Chemnitztal. Even if not all the areas and lines are prime, the overall impression and the capability is awesome!

Pure Wilderness

Last weekend, following the recommendation of some friends, I made my way straight to the east. Some locals had been developing an area called Chemnitztal. For those who don't know, the bouldering scene up there has been growing quite fast the last few years.

Slapping further

Here comes a quick post from Fontainebleau.

The first day worked pretty well. We hiked up to Rempart, where we both could climb some nice boulders. Marko startet with Festin de Pierre and I could manage Les Médisances.

PsicoBlog VII(I)

Yesterdays PsicoBlog VII fall prey to the Ballerman. We couldn't stay on this island without one visit in the famous disco Oberbayern! All pictures of this awesome night fall victim to the censors ;).

Today it was incredible hot (33°C). We hiked to Cova del Diable but it felt like climbing in a stove!

If you are interested in my upcoming adventures in Mallorca, stay tuned!

Hola, Kaier.

Little Fontainebleau

Who would have dreamt that Font is that close? Ok, it's not the original but the Bahratal comes close to.
Come and do the math:

A really brief trip

Few days ago, Rul and I'm headed to Switzerland for a some bouldering.

Addendum

It has been a long time since my last post. But to keep this blog alive I like to give a little update what happens the last month:

In beginning of August, we made a quick trip to the Magic (again). For Karthi, it was his first visit there. Despite this we spend most of the time hiking through the wood and put our hand on nearly every line. I was quite happy to send Goldfish, which was on my ticklist for such a long time but never to come upon dry.

Home, sweet home

I'm getting tired of the conditions all over Europe! It seems that July is the new November.
 So I go for some climbing at the good old local spots.


But now, I will try to catch some good conditions in Magic. Cross your finger for a sun-kissed weekend!

Cheers, Kaier.

Rainbow

It's nothing about climbing, but I want to share this:

I was in the right place (my balcony) at the right time and got my camera by the hand!


Ceya, Kaier.

Back in da Schwiazz

‘Well, the conditions weren't that perfect, but let's give it a chance', I thought 3 weeks ago, loaded up my car and drove down to MagicWood.

Ascension Day

If your are consequent followers of my blog you know, that from time to time I made a non-climbing period for recovery. In the week before Ascension Day, I've got the opportunity to make a trip to Sweden.
For there is nothing to report about names, betas and grades, this blog doesn't consist of to many words in stead of fotos who tell their own story about this great countryside.

Young is the new strong

End of May we pack our kids and made a weekend boulder trip to CZ. The psych was high and the weather perfect.
In sum, the kids didn't show any fear or pain. So we could sent some amazing highballs. And until the day of depart, nearly everybody fingertips are bloody .


 

So watch out! The next generation is on your tail!

Many thanks to Diddy, Daniel & Dirk who made this event possible.
Cheers, Kaier.

Magic Wood

I'm back home from MagicWood, was sitting in front of my current post and don't know how to tell about. Because of absolutely everything was great, I just could set a superlative in front of the words boulder, people, weather, area, food, beer, fun ... .


So take this short report:

Boulderers heaven - Part II

Our guests are gone and we are alone again with all these beautiful rocks. It was a great time, to hang and go for great bouldering with our friends. Everybody was psyched and we could climb some fine lines as you can see on the photos.

Boulderers heaven


Past one week in Fontainebleau, we feel back in business. But the first problems were hard as hell!
 The weather is quit perfect for this time of year but definitely to hot for the hard sloper stuff. Nevertheless we could climb some awesome passages which required all our skills and cleverness.
 Enjoy a collection of pics from the last days:

Ticino squared


For sure you know I had a lot of bouldering recently. But although I like every unique boulder place, everyone of us has some localities were he can't get enough from. For me, it is the feelings while I drove down the pass into the Ticino valley. At this moment, I remember what it feels to stood in between all these boulders, look to the snowy mountains and breath the fresh air. I like this place :).

  So see how the things went perfect for a lot of fine bouldering under a cloudless blue sky!

FJ

The last two weeks, a lot of bouldering happened. The friction was quite perfect and I cannot remember how often I made my way down to the Frankenjura to take advantage of this weather.


Februar 20, 2011

Get out for gambling

It seems the winter is gone. The snow has melted and the sun heads up our days. So turn one's back on the gym. It's time for spring clean the rocks, sweep the leafs away to go outside and rock ...



See you abroad, Kaier.

P.s. Sorry for my cap ;D

Ticino

In end of January, I was lucky enough to catch some of the days with perfect weather in Chironico. It was quite made for bouldering!
 My ticklist wasn't that hard but long, so there was a lot to do :).

Short-Media-News

The past time this Blog has been scarce - sorry about that! Part of the reason are the unstable weather and a couple of decisions regarding my 'earning-a-living future' were pending... . So I climbed on plastic most of the time trying to get in shape until spring. (What kind of boring business! :)
That's all settled and I'm now try to get my rock-feeling back by spending more time outdoors. After some frustrating visits in the Frankenjura, I drove to Ticino for one week. There'll be photos & a report soon - stick around!

While waiting, enjoy an awesome flick about our great time in Fontainebleau last spring. Really good job Diddy!!!



Cheers, Kaier.

Hidden beauties in the foggy forest of Fontainebleau

After reactivate my sandstone skills, by climbing Gendarmerie (in one hour) in the Bahratal, I felt well prepared for my New-Years-Trip to Fontainebleau.


Yes, unfortunately the weather was not perfect, but P.R. gives a spectacular argument for what is possible at nearly 100% humidity. Really inspiring! Despite this, our list doesn't look as bad as the weather supposed to. First -for sure- we pay Bas Cuvier a visit. All the obvious lines were wet or unpleasant crowded. Therefore I scrap my ticklist and we turned one's back on the classic problems and head out to seek out the unheeded gems in the forest.
