Also due to the group of climbers gathered by Urban Roof climbing school (Ljubljana, Slovenia). For some of them it was the first time to taste the real rock, while some were already climbing 6c on-sight . They fully explored Portafortuna climbing area and it was only rain yesterday on the afternoon, that forced them to retreat. Beside good rock and routes, they also found a restaurant Forza to be a great choice for a hungry climber, after the day at the crag … and a small but friendly camp… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1896 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1892 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1892#comments Mon, 16 May 2011 09:12:33 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1892 Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1892 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1883 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1883#comments Fri, 13 May 2011 12:34:59 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1883 Wherever there is climbing, grades play a big part of it. Unfortunately! We really shouldn’t pack our climbing days into just numbers and evaluate our good times by grades. Enjoy the nature, enjoy the rock and enjoy the freedom first! Climb hard or climb easy, climb everything or whatever suits you best and use grades only as a guiding information on what you should try and what not. OK, there is a sportive challenge involved, but as a must only at the top level. Grades are also good for our personal motivation, but only until we get lost among them.… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1883 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1823 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1823#comments Mon, 09 May 2011 12:01:09 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1823 During Easter holiday, two teams of our friends were putting up new climbs at both main areas of Baška. Hans Weninger & friends bolted new lines in sectors A and E of the new crag Belove Stene in the grade range from 5a to 6b, while Thomas Jekel, Hannes Hoffmann & Martin Birle were active in Portafortuna, sectors B (1 route, 5c) and at the right hand end of sector D (7 new routes, grades 4c to 6a). Routes may still need some rain for final cleaning, but are safe to be climbed! Guys also cleaned the base… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1823 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1804 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1804#comments Thu, 14 Apr 2011 09:47:52 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1804 We are happy to announce that topo (provisional only though) for new crag Belove Stene is ready and already published. Belove stene is a beautiful crag in a true mountainous environment. couple of kilometers from Baška. We were working on it for the last year and a half, cleaning the bases of the walls, walls, access paths … and bolting. There are 32 bolted lines in a compact limestone so-far, mainly of easier grades, but there is still a lot of room for harder ones and some projects are waiting to be climbed. The only thing that is missing are… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1804 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1777 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1777#comments Fri, 08 Apr 2011 20:59:16 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1777 Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1777 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1637 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1637#comments Wed, 09 Feb 2011 16:50:55 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1637 Looks like winter is far gone for now! We’ve just spent some days in Baška, bolting new routes and climbing. It was warm on the sun, perfect, as it was April already, no winds and no clouds or fog. We climbed in t-shirts most of the day and didn’t even bother too much when shadow came around. Below you can check some images, maybe just to tease you up, or to see how beautiful it can be … Climbing outdoors, on such a stunning locations is just unbeatable … Oh yes, we mentioned bolting – well, stay tuned and you’ll… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1637 0 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1607 http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1607#comments Sun, 06 Feb 2011 10:15:34 +0000 Tomaž K http://www.climbinbaska.com/?p=1607 Looks like the season of outdoor climbing will begin soon this year and facing that, we would like to remember you about the nature. It is not that we would like to save the Earth, but let us be at least a good example. Therefore, when you go climbing outdoors, please never leave any litter behind! Always carry it back  and throw away where acceptable … If you see that someone left something behind, be a good example and pick it up or ask the one to do it. Smokers be very careful!!!! Your cigarette butts are a huge fire… Climb more ...]]> http://www.climbinbaska.com/?feed=rss2&p=1607 0
