Morocco
11 June 2016, 8:42 am

I've spent the past two weeks in Morocco with my friends at Röjk superwear. There was me and a group of six amazing people that went travelling across the country to gather photos and videos to show Röjk's next year's summer collection. Between riding camels in the Sahara, exploring old ruins in Ouarazazate, haggling at the local markets and chilling by the ocean in Essoueira, we also managed to fit one day of climbing in Todra gorge. A crag I’ve been wanting to visit for a long time.



I don't know if we were lucky or if local climber and author of a “guidebook” to the area, Hassan Mouhajir, is always around the corner. Regardless, he was the first person we bumped into when entering a coffeehouse in the village Tigui, at the entrance to the gorge. He sold me a topo that looks like no other and then showed us to a sector where we could climb in the prevailing heat. Although it was way out of season, I was really stoked to be in the beautiful canyon. Huge, red limestone cliffs are shooting up towards the sky on both sides of a winding road that goes along the river through the gorge. There are more than 600 routes, so obviously I only got to see a glimpse of what the area has to offer.

Stay tuned for some excellent photos from Matti Rapila Anderssonand Rickard Croy’s video from the trip. In the meantime, I strongly suggest you check out Rickards film from Röjk’s photoshoot in Indonesia last autumn.

Morocco through my lens
8 July 2016, 12:56 pm

I've uploaded more photos from the trip to Morocco. Although I didn't spend as much time behind the camera as in front of Matti's and Richard's sharp lenses, I still managed to get some shots of my own. For anyone keen on checking them out, follow this link or click on any of the photos below.

Frankenjura
21 July 2016, 8:23 pm

I'm back in Sweden after a couple of weeks in Germany where me and my  friend Erik Massih stayed and climbed in Frankenjura. It was my first  time in this renowned area and it was truly inspiring to check out some  milstones in the history of climbing. It is mindblowing to think of how  far a head in the evolution of the sport pioneers like Wolfgang Güllich was when climbing routes like Action direct and Wallstreet. I  did unfortunetely not get a chance to take photos of these particular  climbs, but I hope you will appreciate the once I actually took.







Johan Larsson looking for the right pockets to grab on an onsight burn on Entsafter 8+/7a+.

Scheufele und knödeln - A bavarian specialty perfect for poor climbingbums like us. Not only was it more than plenty to recover from a full day of climbing, it kept me full the entire next day. Erik taking precautions so that the exhaust won't be lost on autobahn.

Stefan Pettersson proving he's an excellent climber not only when bouldering. In the week we where hanging out in Frankenjura I think I ate more sweet cherries than I had before in my entire life.
