To friends old and new thank you for yet another memorable year climbing in the fabulous Verdon. 

Now psyched to see how 2015 plays out on one of the world's finest limestone walls - The 400m high 'Escales'.

Just wanted to share these fabulous fall colours in the Verdon today after what has been a wonderful 2014 autumn season.

Very honoured to be able to help make newly weds Shaddow and Rachel Ayala's honeymoon an occasion they will never forget on the big wild walls of the Verdon.
Shaddow and I had already briefly met some years ago on a bouldering road trip in Bishop California. When he contacted me this summer with the news that he was getting married and specifically coming to the Gorge for a special climbing Honeymoon trip I immediately remembered him and was psyched
to be his guide and organise the logistics of filming and photographing them on 2 of the Verdon's more
'out there' short routes - "Tanti Auguri" 6c and in the short video below, Shaddow climbing the massively exposed

"Baiser Sanglant" 6c+.
