The Germans Michael Scharnweber and Tobias Wolf were in France to try an unfinished, i.e. not continuously free-climbed project on the „Rochers du Midi“ by Phillipe Mussatto, a French climbing icon. Routes like „Ali Baba“, „Trouterapie“, „Les 40 Voleurs“ and „Carnet d’Adress“ first ascented by him and are true masterpieces. The two tried a free ascent, except for the 5th pitch. After a day’s rest, the idea matured to blink this pitch via a free-climbing variation. In this way, the project finally succeeded. More at kayakandclimb.blogspot.com.
