El calvario del sicario

1st a. Julio Fernández, 1992 (a year before Adam Ondra born), the first 8c in Cuenca and one of the first of Spain.

It was a benchmark of modernity in its time, because one of the first very overhanging routes.

After 1st a. some holds got broken, ascents from:

Dani Andrada
Stefan Glowacz
Patxi Usobiaga
Dafnis Fernández
Pedro Pons
José Manuel Velazquez
Elieu Chevieux
Ramon Julian "Ramonet"
Edu Marin

In 2007 Luis Alfonso Felix too (suggested grade 8c +).

- attempt on "Fight or flight"

2) Saturday 9: rest day

3) Sunday 10:
- 2nd a. of "Fight or flight"
- reclimbing "La dura dura" for photos and video
- dinner
- traveling all night to Cuenca
- arriving in Cuenca at 4.30 am.

4) Monday 11
- at 10 a.m up
- warm up: Raiban, 8a +, on sight
- 3rd a. of "Totem", on sight, with almost no effort
- "El calvario del sicario", on sight, with lot of effort (Adam is stronger in vertical routes and the route is complicated to visualize and does not allow many mistakes)
- attempt on sight of "Root"

27crags, climbervoice, 8a and many others are amazing sites, but sometimes, expecially if you worked a lot to envision, bolt, clean routes or boulders, you want to monetize a little your efforts.

9b can help you in this aim.

As you can see here, in 9b there are many " topo groups ".

You can add a discussion in every "topo group".

In your discussion you can edit and publish your own climbing topoguide, as a "paywall", a "destination page", requiring climbers their payment by credit card or paypal to access and read, even on SMARTPHONES (iphones, android phones, ...)
