After a somewhat epic journey that involved calling Mr. Markus Stadler a couple of times I finally found my way to the Burgauer Wand again. Hiking through the misty November air was really good and refreshing, fall is an astonishing season here in the Chiemgau. I roamed around scoping for the possible projects Jan Mersch had hinted at and found the main sector completely bolted-and not too attractive too. Kinda blocky...Jan had told me that a lot of the future lines would be found at the crag to the left and there I found a pretty cool little cave that will probably yield a couple of bouldery roof routes with possible 30m+ extensions possible, though spoiled by a no hand rest after the roof`s lip. The rock seems amazing. Still I´m in doubt whether to bolt these lines when Shorty visits me in December, the approach being long and tiring...I`m not talking about king lines here in the end. I will thus continue to look for better projects. At least I`ll keep those in the back of my head...

A week after, a comp of basically the same format will be held in Rosenheim and I´m intended to score this one, too. Hopefully Verena will get in shape in time again after that terrible bitch of a flu. If not I´ll have to compensate- after all it`s a team competition. I`m in the best shape I`ve been for a long time and with a week left I´m determined to improve a little...
I`m currently listening to Papa Roach. Unfortunately I cannot turn the shit up, the old §$%&? living in the flat under me would complain in an instant. I despised her from the beginning, here we go...
