Sun - Spent the week planning to go to Elephant, but thanks to Mr Rginns video I changed my mind at the last minute and went to look at the red circuit at cul du chien. The weather looked excellent, that was until I got to Roche aux sabots, the whole place was dripping with condensation. Carried on to Cul du chien which wasn't much better, a couple of bits were in the sun, but all the top-outs were wet. Spent more time cleaning sand off my shoes than anything else. I still can't find the end of the red circuit.
Meunchener - what muscle relaxants? Ibuprofen etc..?

The end of the reds are hiding in the trees, not the easiest to navigate it must be said...Did you try 'Verglas Frequent' by any chance? I found it nails... Great place
Still no structure whatsoever! Didn't do any strength work. Still improving on steep wood. Maybe I don't need to do any specific f/boarding when mostly I'm bouldering on brutally steep boards that are fingery for the most part?

Great place I already had Verglas Frequent in mind, your vid just tipped the balance. Which direction in the trees should I be looking? I can find up to no. 20.
like a true athlete I have taken advantage of this by guzzling food and wine.

Pyrosis did you look at the size of the mole when he took it out? My girlfriend had one removed about a mth ago, 6mm on surface but she said it was massive when the doc showed her after he took it out. She was shocked! She's been left with a 5cm ish scar and she couldn't exercise for 10 days, or get it wet etc. Sounds similar
...long list of awesomeness...
I was thinking that. Both Bishop trips I couldn't climb more than 2 days in a row due to crap skin (but I did wear gloves every day for the preceding 6 months and did no climbing which probably didn't help)
