→ First 5.14c For Nina Caprez∞

Posted June 18, 2014 at 8:30 am · Comments { 1 } ·

27 year-old Swiss climber Nina Caprez has done her first 5.14c with a repeat of Hélix au pays des merveilles at France’s Pic Saint Loup:

“I fell in love”, Nina raves about the line. “This huge limestone cave was one of the best things I’ve ever seen in my life. The quality of rock is unbelievable: beside pure tufas you have perfect crimps, pockets…” From the moment she abseiled down into the cave ‘Pic de Saint Loup’ north of Montpellier, France, she wanted to climb on the huge fat tufa in the middle of the wall. “And I was a lucky girl – there was a route that was topping out on this huge tufa – the Hélix.

There is some footage of her on the route that can be seen here.

→ Five Ten Camp Four Shoe∞

Nice review of my favorite non-climbing pair of shoes I own, the Five Ten Camp Four:

It’s nice to have a few time-tested items in your arsenal that you can simply order brand new every few years with full confidence in what you’re going to receive. No shopping around, no sizing up or deliberating over various products, you just know. Well, this shoe is that piece of gear for me, and my fourth pair just arrived in the mail yesterday.

I’ve had two or three pairs of these shoes over the last several years and I’ve used them for just about everything from walking around town, hiking 14ers, easy 5th class climbing and many days scrambling around talus fields chasing the latest bouldering project.

 They stick like glue to rock, they can take a ton of abuse and they last for a long time1.
