Two new routes were added to the Old Head (and Old Skerries), the buttress on the most south easterly tip of Orkney.

Geoquest-Author Pirmin Bertle (Passion Verticale) realized the first 9a of Bolivia in an altitude of almost 4000 meters above sea level. See the video.

On his way to Leipzig Adam Ondra made a stopover at Löbejün, our local crag and I got the honour to show him around.  

Welcome at our climbing spot Aktienbruch! 
Adam gets the guidebook Kletterführer Rotgelbes Felsenland 
to find the best routes.

There are more rocks around the city of Singida.
