if this place isn't proper weapon then i'll go to the foot of our stairs. there can't be all these photos of amazing looking problems and they all turn out to be shit. where theres that much smoke theres bound to be a fire with my name on it. fuck yeah.
Albarracin is certainly the current "hotspot" in Spain and deservidely so. If you could imagine Font about 100 years ago then...you get the picture? It's a beautiful place and there is a lot more to climb than what's been opened. There is rock everwhere!I went in November 2004 when it was still quiet and very much under development. I believe that now it's a lot busier. October through to early Spring are certainly good times to visit. It does get very cold up there though and in the winter it does snow too. In the Summer it gets very hot indeed...probably too hot for most boulderers....although the things I have seen climbed in Spain in temperatures over 40degC....it'd make you want to burn your boots!There are plenty of hotels, there's a youth hostel and there's a campsite. The bar to be seen in and to meet other climbers is El Molino Del Gato...they do a nice hot chocolate.Some of these clips depict a locals choice of classic problems. There are many more such as Pinturas Buldestres (8a+), Zatoichi (8a), Turbo Kleenex (2.05m dyno 8a+ but now in a "banned" zone), Grasshopper (7b+)...a bit like Deliverence without the flake, Wassame (7b)...monster roof/overhang....the list could go on...All this talk makes me want to go back there!Hope this is of some use.CheersLuc
