La Ola

And back to our beloved Argentina... nice people, good food, great wines and pretty girls ! What else ? Climbing of course ! This time we go to one of the most famous sport crag in Argentina, La Ola ! Nice bush camping in a land rented by a farmer family where it's in the middle of goats, chickens, turkeys and kitties that we spent a hard climbing week. The very specificity of the rock here is these carved granit offering very high angle routes. Generally granit is more slabby or vertical like in Los Gigantes or in mountains. On top of that the area was traversed by several rivers offering a nice after climb swim.

La Ola landscapes...rock...rock...rock

Nice pool for after climb swim :)

La Ola sector....the routes in the orange are VERY overhanging :)

Myself falling in Thor the hardest 7a+ in the world....

Alys such a slab star she doesn't need her hands

Steve crushes the crux of a nice 7a

After la Ola we went to Mendoza where the girls had the surprise to have their beds and therefore all their clothes infested with bed bugs... They loved the few hours boiling all their stuff :) And yeah girls always look more clean....heheh

Happy girls :)
