Transiberia


 This route was 10 mins drive from out apt in Hasliberg thus seemed a good plan for a short day...rain was forecast in the afternoon. Having been climbing on slabby granite so far steep slippy limestone was somewhat of a contrast.  No photos at the bottom of the route. The first 6a pitch (pitch 1) was nails and really steep. Mike is now on the second 6a pitch (pitch 4). This was also fairly stiff and really hard to second with a pack on as the rope pulled you one way and sack the other.  Mike giving a thumbs up now he's over the hard bits  Weather approaching so we heading off to Lucerne for an afternoon of shopping, beer and chilling.  We weren't expecting quite such a good walk off! We're used to dirt tracks with the odd cairn but we found a mown lawn in the middle of the forest, mental!  The crag from the car. Much of it is hidden by the trees.
