Appréhension 7C+, Bouldering in Fontainebleau

Appréhension 7C+, Bouldering in Fontainebleau

One of my most memorable sends from the last trip to Font was the one of À Préhension in Coquibus longs vaux. Even though I was totally wrecked after having climbed from early morning to late afternoon that day, I still decided to go and check this problem out, partly thanks to some persuasion from Neil.

Ryan Silven explores the storied forest of Fontainebleau, France in search of the history, experience, and, most of all, the blocs found underneath the canopy. Such classics as “La Baleine”, “Noir Desir”, and “La Jocker” should be on everyone’s lifetime lists. Watch and enjoy. The forest beckons. 2011

A warm summer break in Fontainebleau was mainly used as a rest from training-eating patisserie, drinking wine and pottering around the circuits in the forest. However I did go and look at this whilst we were there, I thought it maybe climbable in the 30 degree heat. I was right! Great problem and in a […]

In September of 2011 we hit the road in Lax (my not so trusty ole ’82 Granville) and headed south from Portland to run the Rogue River, climb Mt. Shasta, and visit Yosemite enroute to Bishop where we would settle for the fall. This film documents our time in Bishop, bouldering. The hope was to […]
