After the‘Worldcup‘ in Briançon I finally had the chance to touch some of the best rock in the world again. Together with the @austriaclimbing team we climbed 3 days in amazing Céüse. A short trip but it was perfect to have a first glimpse in the new 9c ‚Bibliographie‘ from @alexandermegos and it definitely got me psyched to return as soon as possible! • Photo by KVÖ/ @katha_saurwein • #rockclimbing #teamtrip #goodtimes #climbing #athlete @mammut_swiss1862 @raiffeisen @lasportivagram @innsbrucktourism @thecrag_worldwide @heeressportzentrum
