British Climber and self-confessed ‘sleep deprived Dad’ has added his second route at 9A with Conde de Choc at Entraygues. This follows his 2012 ascent of Escalamasters. Pearson described the route as “Quite bouldery (2 boulder crux’s, the first at 8A/+)”. The ascent took him 3 days.

Not Wednesday nights planned post, but a happy interruption because I just climbed 9a again! Not bad for a sleep-deprived Dad 😊 ‘Conde de choc’, at Entraygues. Quite bouldery (2 boulder crux’s, the first at 8A/+) and took 3 days. I’m not good at working routes for a lot of time (or, as Caro so succinctly puts it “a lazy bugger”), so it’s nice to know there’s still some gas in the tank.
