Shorts & sports bra weather all day was a great start to the climbing season!

After a swampy approach we used about 45? minutes trying to find the notoriously mysterious Himmel og Hav. We walked up and down, then backwards, then called some friends, and after getting an extra pitch in, we came to the real start, where we saw the two old pegs everyone had mentioned. Here Brede led what we would find afterwards to be a more difficult variation of the first pitch, but what turned out to be really nice climbing after an awkward off-width start. Nicely placed ledges made for great belay stations. Brede also led the next pitch, again really nice climbing, before I led the final pitch to the top.

Time went super fast in the wall, and soon we had been out for 10 hours and I was pretty sunburnt.

Takk for en fantastisk tur Brede!
