Climbing in Germany in mid-winter, not so smart…

Well boys and girls, i’ve decided to take a few moments from my ill-fated climbing trip to communicate with you, the people. As it turns out this particular trip is just another example of a zest for life and wish for altitude going horribly, horribly awry. Apparently mid-december isn’ what you’d “technically” call climbing season in Berlin. Who knew?!? I’m just a simple boy from the carribean. When we feel like climbing we climb!!! As it happens it’s just too D&;#% cold!!! …Sigh… Oh well…

As for those of you savvy to the ways of climbing who feel obligated to mention “ICE climbing” you can just bypass those “smart-&#$” comments right now. Warm up the ice to a manageable 80° and then MAYBE i’ll take a crack at it.

  1. Thanks for the warning, Alberto. Perhaps you should have packed some extra thermals!

  2. Probably would have been a good idea.
