... br>
We finally made a break for it and got completely wet on the 30 minute hike to the van. Since we were soaked and it was raining we decided to get a cabin at the campground, a small wooden shelter for us to hang out in. We had dinner and wine and cuddled up covering the whole floor with sleeping bodies.
The next day the weather was clear and we went back to an area we had been the previous week to clean ...
Climbing in Siurana Part 1
... climbing all day in the sun on a crisp October day. We climbed some warmups, a great overhanging 7a, and 2 long routes, one 40m and the other 35m, on steep faces both rate 7b+ (5.12c). Amazing climbing on pockets and edges with distinct cruxes but long and sustained as well, perfect.

There's quite a lot to see, ...
More Santa Tecla
... long (and safe) route around the outside - it will mean that you can avoid admitting defeat.
The next item of interest is a statue to Lluis Companys, a man who is worthy of a little research, should you feel like doing any, into the history of modern Spain. Beyond this, there didn't look to be much more to keep us going and we'd had contacts from Tony, Kay and James so it was back to the city centre in search of some breakfast for them and some cider for us. A bit early, ...
