Limestone Block
Jack called me a few days ago and told me that he had something to show me. The next day he drove me an hour and a half to a remote area in the mountains of Japan. We parked and to my surprise very near to the road there was a 5m tall limestone block just waiting to be climbed. The block is right next to a river, so one side of the boulder there are a plethora of water grooved features begging to be palpated! This side of the wall is also 40 to 45 degrees overhung!!
After a couple of hours cleaning, we established two new lines. We have not named them, but one is a V6 and the other feels like a stiff V5. There is absolutely going to be several days spent here establishing new lines in the coming days.
Here is a photo of the block. In the photo Jack is climbing the V6 on the left side of the boulder. More to come soon.
