Lovely weather, good climbing
The extra long weekend was a good motivation for the belgian climbers to show us some nice climbing: 15-year old Stéphane Hanssens climbed 8a for the first time with Orange à mèr at Kronthal (FR), he is the youngest belgian to achieve this grade!Older climber Johan Mus climbed De la Terre à la Une (8a) on sight (have a look at this picture of the route).
In our own country, at Freyr, Jerry Baets climbed the first pitch of Schwarzenegger on sight (7c+, both pitches is 8a), and as a confirmation of his quality, the day after he red-pointed Namche Bazar at the first attempt.
