Paul and Boris
We said we’d get back to Le Chapeau (it was good last time) – and today the poor forecast coupled with our forgetting the guidebook meant we needed a plan B; Chapeau…
Paul, Boris, Laetitia and Pete grabbed four excellent granite slab routes before today’s thunderstorms started.

Looking at that weather all four of you can go straight to the top of the git list
Just out of interest; is all the climbing there on the granite slabs off vertical?
OFF vertical???????? VERY vertical!!!!
But because it’s a slab, and it’s granite, the friction is AWESOME. My favourite and at last something I can lead.
“VERY vertical!!!!” Shame, looked good from the picture
The crag looks great, especially as I was working today…… helping some old guy build a big boat for a load of animals……
Has Pete got a number of those photogenic T shirts or is that the same one on every blog???? Pheeeewwww!
I thort a vertical ‘slab’ was called a ‘wall’ ??
…and a “VERY vertical!!!!” wall was called an ‘overhang’?! I assume the number of exclamation marks is proportional to the amount of overhang, so that’ll be Tish on 40 degree overhanging terrain relying on friction alone – now that is awesome!
looks fab, hope to get there some time
