Gastlosen
7th June 2010
Gastlosen is one of the biggest sports climbing crags around here, in fact one of the bigger ones in Switzerland really. This is a poor photograph really, I ought to have taken one from the parking or a bit further away. We just climbed in the first sector nearest the parking known as Gravière for all the scree underneath.
I’ve got some older photographs and you can start to see what an amazing area this is for climbing, it’s a long ridge with climbing either side. We were on the eastern side of the north-south running ridge but there’s climbing on the western side as well.
These two (above) photographs are taken from the western side near Chalet du Soldat which is a good base to climb on that end of the ridge.
Some more wintery shots from the eastern side taken in October 08 and March 09
