Both feet on? Gaylord.

Bottom one has to be the the rose move on Rose And The Vampire at Buoux. Top one looks like the Frankenjura to me (or maybe somewhere in Eastern Europe).

I assumed Tris was joking.

Tris · October 16, 2009, 10:02:47 am

What I mean is that photos that are zoomed in on a climber and not showing the scale of things don't really do a lot for me. Ok, it maybe a famous route/move but it doesn't really show the grandeur of the wall. It's my personal preference/opinion that's all - other people may love it...each to their own.

I still would like to know where the top one is?

Slackers has backlinked the pics, click on them to view them on the flickr page and you can see the rest of the set and all pic info. It is indeed Frankenjura as Stabbsy said.

BOOM - something for everybody...

Jasper - no feet were on the day before... I got shot down.

Tom et Je Ris looks stellar. It's a massive 60m tufa (actually 2 of them) that you have to ab into. As you go out from La Palud on the Gorge road going clockwise, this is on the opposite side of the gorge from the first (or maybe second) tourist viewing point. Of course you can't get there from there, you have to do a big walk in from the road on the other side of the gorge. Epic in every way for a single pitch sport route.

You can get to it from the touristy side as well I believe as some fairly hardcorse Germans were attempting this when we were there. They said it took 40 mins to get there. It looked amazing.

See, now that's the shizzle I'm talking about!

Very impressive climbing (obviously) too...

Nice Grand Cap pics by JB in latest Climber. Great stuff.

Adam Lincoln · October 22, 2009, 09:42:51 pm

Some tanned bloke on Zeke The Freak

What no heel hooks?

GCW · October 22, 2009, 09:51:16 pm

Is there something up with your light sensor, looks very dark? Or maybe it's overcompensating for the brightness of the Tan^TM

You haven't got Petzl Sponsorship now, by any chance?

Just notched up the exposure a tad. Hows that? Was very dark today in the peak.

GCW · October 22, 2009, 10:36:28 pm

Yeah, much better.

slackline · October 23, 2009, 12:43:52 am

Nice pic Adam, like the detail of in the forearms and concentration.

Now go and install Greasmonkey and Allsizes+ and backlink your picks properly

(assuming you're using a decent browser!)

(Sorry if that came across as patronising, not meant to be, just makes it dead easy to post images to forums, and has the added bonus that you're then complying with the Flickr T&C which stipulate pics should be linked back).

Not at all. I only realized the other day about Flickr infringements.

Cheers Chris. The pick of the bunch actually went to Climb. Chuffed Climber used the distant shot as the opener though.

SA Chris · October 23, 2009, 11:44:56 am

Will have a look. Sure Alpinist would take a shot or two off your hands too.
