This is our final day of climbing here in Rjukan. We fly home tomorrow afternoon and so might squeeze a spot of skiing in tomorrow morning at the local ski centre. Today we headed to the Lower Gorge and climbed LP Plata (WI3) and Kursutra (WI3). The second route was very fat and so the first 10m or so were more like WI4. It has been snowing heavily for the last 48 hours and so the easier grade routes now need a lot of cleaning as they have a foot of snow on them in places! After a spot of lunch we drove up to the Krokan area and Paul lead an unnamed WI2 with me alongside on a rope offering advice and filming! Preparations were in full swing for the ice climbing festival that takes place this weekend. It has been a great weeks cragging and we have all got tired calves now!
