Good adventures this week on the crags around Evolene. It's been really hot - 35 degrees in Sion - but Evolene Pont crag is shady in the morning. Pictures here from le Sommitale, 5 pitches of bolted but still slightly "old-school" adventure!
Then we had a day at the Secteur Sanieres, above the la Sage road. Shady all day and only 10 minutes from the car this should be a great summer crag. Unfortunately it doesn't get much traffic and the routes are still quite dirty. Our attempt on the stunning-looking Sang Bleu ended in a complete loss of sang froid and vows to return with a brush!
