La Fouly and the whole Val Ferret is like a hidden diamond in the west of Switzerland. Not many people who have travelled Switzerland do even know of Val Ferret.

Sometimes in the future give it a try.......

Perhaps the last two lines of article could be changed that way: As long as US external policy is being followed up to the point by guide of Zbigniev Brzezinski nothing is going to change. If you look the past 30 years of its external policy you can see that guys in CIA, US state department, Washington, White house, etc are following his guides religiously.

Bought UZAR 15.467, still no move from ZAR/TRY CBs in regards to hike. Turkish CB did note that they will consider hikes if FED moves, but wierdly enough they cut the weekly depo rate instead of hiking it. The fact that there was no move in either of CBs makes good consideration that those two currencies, ZAR especially will likely hit large inflation in next 2 years if not hiperinflation. All EMs are trapped becouse they cant hike due to weak China/themselves, and FED precesly knows that.

I used to see such compititions at the local sport organization. It was impressive.
Unfortunately, I could not have had such experience as I was a powerlifter - a little bit different sport direction.

D.P.

Additionally I would like to ask - just interested in - I see you are switching over a safety rope (cord) through the rope clamps already installed into the wall, each time you are about to take a move (by the way, IMO, you made a mistake as you had not swithed over the rope higher before moving up) - so, question is that in reality there are no rope clapms intalled in the wall, I suppose, you do have to install one of them before the next move is done. Right? And do you need carring them on while climbing? What do you do if you see they are lacking out and the rest of them is not enough to finish climbing?

OK, here we go:

the thing with the "rope clamps":

a) as you can see I am climbing on an artificial tower. Normally the safety gear like "express sets" is already in place. Because in a competition it is not about who can e.g. place the ice screw fastest. The only goal is to climb the most difficult route in the shortest time (with using all the fix-points for your safety)

b) on some sport climbing routes the bolts, screws etc. are already placed and the express sets are already placed, too (express set: two carbines connected with a sling. On some routes, the bolts, screws etc. are placed, but you have to bring the express-sets with you

c) on some climbing routes you have to place all those safety gear by yourself. E.g.: when climbing an ice-fall, you normally will not find some pre-installed ice-screws or whatever. In this case, you take some ice-screws, most of the time up to six, and place the screws where you see fit. Problem is: placing ice screws is time consuming and so consumes a lot of your energy. But on the other hand: if you place the screws to wide apart, the fall may get dangerously long with all the sharp parts attached to your hands and feet.So you have to decide.


When mountaineering big walls, the safety gear attached to your belt can get a lot of weight.

When climbing and you notice, that you are either run out of rope or out of safety gear, you have to find a good place for building a stand. After having found one and having attached all the necessary safety gear to the wall etc., you simply give command so that the person who belayed you can follow your route. From this moment on you are the belayer. The person who now climbs up, normally detaches all the safety points like ice screws, etc. on his way up and attaches them to his belt. Once the person reaches your stand, you can decide again who will take the lead for the next rope-length.


As for my "mistake":

the best clipping position (clipping: to clip the rope in the carbine) is, when your chest or belt is on the same height as the carbine (express set). In doing so, you can spare energy, and it is better for safety reasons).

E.g.: we climb a wall, and we have a 200 meters rope. With it, you can climb nearly 200 Meters in one go if you like. 100 meters of rope have a weight of roughly 5kg. So when you constantly try to clip remote carbines far above your head, your arms/shoulders have to work pretty hard. Add to the weight of the rope the force of friction, caused by the rope running through various carbines. For the safety reason: when you try to clip overhead, you artificial prolong the falling distance in case something goes wrong while clipping. This is especially critical in the first meters of the ascend when the ground is narrow.

Sometimes the only position for clipping is overhead. You can see it in the video, when I am at the end of the ice and start dry-tooling into the roof. It is bad for the reasons laid out, but when it is the only practical way...........

Clipping overhead is most of the time a mental issue. Often enough one fears a drop and so decide to clip as early as possible. On many occassions this is a bad solution.


If further questions, simply shoot :-)

The process of mountain climbing requires a lot of "power consumption" of a sportsmen. So, in relality the sportsmen needs controlling its body and mind perfectly. The safety gears weight much, I think, they are dozens to be taken - that is very difficult to control the additional weight - plus you must take tools for attaching a gear to the wall - unbelievable indeed.

Climbing is trading alike. The difference is that there is no the second life for climbing if mistaken. I know it is very hard.

Thanks for review, Markus.

I wish you to be victorious at your compitition.
