Climbing at Pic St Loup

Terry and John Hollands are climbing at Pic St Loup, near Montpellier. We prefer long multi-pitch to single pitch sports. So here we are today at the scary-looking crag, Hortus, picking the easiest route up the face, Cagne (5c).

Here you see the party just in front of us on the first pitch. They were slick French and we never saw them again!

I can say there wasn’t a single let up in the difficulty. John joins me after this fantastic dihedral…..
