Où sont mes frites?

The lazy morning soon became lunchtime. After which some of our newly expanded group went for a hike. The rest of us went climbing on the impressive crags of Ailefroid (that we saw on the drive home yesterday).

The village lies in a high alpine valley surrounded by clear streams, blue skies and acres of perfect granite. The slabby crag was a great place to brush up my technique!

Gorge du Furon

After a very leisurely start to the day, we headed for the Gorge du Furon for a spot of canyoning. A few big drops later (3m, 5m and 7m) we were back at the car.

Lunch was followed by a spot of climbing at a very polished crag.

At 9pm we drove to the campsite where the SWCC are staying. Plans have now been made and I am much happier now :)
