We're not going for a sausage fest Jim. Anyway, there is a spare place on this magical trip so if any of you punters fancy joining in the fun with some big number and some medium numbers, get in touch with me. We are leaving this sunday and return the following sunday. I can only promise good times, hard problems, Jim's sausage, and mescaline.

If you try the mescaline first, the sausage may well be least of your worries.  Then again, maybe not...

just got back. saw 2 clouds all week. they were emanating from dobbin's buttpipe after eating some particularly cheap cereal bars. he should have done le pilier, but instead put holes in his fingers. ya was tres warm i did indeed have my shirt off, trying to scare the italians. DON"T go to magic unless you fancy snowball fights and climbing verglas. we did. chironico was good. i'd recommend taking a heap of finger skin.
we didn't need the masks.
i'd recommend pleasure tv, and series16 of the simpson's. oh and if you ever get the option of watching memento, don't.
oh and eichof is a very nice beer.

Having just returned from a week there here are some pics to get you psyched. Pics are only of cresciano since that is what this thread pertains to (other pics to follow in the bouldering pics thread).








Apologies for the bad photos, but I couldn't be expected to take good photos and climb at the same time...

I think sleeping up there is no problem. Perhaps busy on the weekend but definitely room during the week. I had the priviledge of arriving there one morning to find an old swiss man doing his morning yoga in the sunshine right in the middle of the car park!

We stayed in an apartment in lumino, about 7 miles from cresciano.

Scenes witnessed at cresiano:
huge donkey lines on a 20 degree slab (almost a step to be honest), a big group all using pof and some fucking idiot beating a drum all morning
Fucking euro's. (no offense Nibs)
