Tormäuer is an ice climbing paradise, on the north/east side of Ötscher (1893 m). There are about 100 ice falls and also some mixed routes. We only checked out <i>Hintere Tormäuer,</i> which is<i> </i>the closest sector for us (120 km)<i>.</i> The place is basically a 4 km long canyon filled with ice falls. Apparently it is possible to park on the both side of the canyon, so the approaches are about 5 -30 min on flat ground. </div>

<i>A blog entry exceptionally in Finnish (koska massia jaetaan vaan suomalaisille). </i><br />
<br />
Keväällä ihmetystä kyselyillään herättänyt Finnish Alpine Awards-projekti julkaisi juuri uudet nettisivunsa <a href="http://alpineaward.fi/">http://alpineaward.fi</a>. Samuli Mansikan muistolle perustettu projekti pyrkii kannustamaan ja tunnustamaan esimerkillistä suomalaista kiipeilytoimintaa jakamalla vuosittain yhdelle tai useammalle merkittävälle suomalaiselle kiipeilyhankkeelle xxxx euroa rahallista tukea ja antamaan sille ansaittua näkyvyyttä.<br />
<br />
Tällä hetkellä xxxx tarkoittaa yli 2000 €, mikä saattaisi tehdä monen eräjorman unelmareissusta totta. Eli eipä muuta kuin lukekaa säännöt ja hakemusta vetämään.<br />
<br />
Stipendiä haetaan <a href="http://alpineaward.fi/hakeminen/">täältä</a>. Hakuaika alkoi viime lauantaina ja päättyy 15.11.2016 kello 23:59.<br />
<br />
Onnea matkaan! Toivottavasti rahat ei mene Fontsun reissuun.sakuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411844805890882515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089957656043429723.post-55560948208933100082016-08-19T17:15:00.000+03:002016-08-19T17:15:41.527+03:00Life after BrazilI was lying on a hospital bed, shaking and sweating. It was hard to breathe. My resting heart rate was 110. I couldn’t sleep. It was way too hot in the hospital but they refused to open the windows of my 7th floor room. At the time, I was diagnosed with depression, as they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me.<br />

<i>When the nurse asked if a nun should come by to pray for me, I knew I was fucked.</i></div>
<br />
<br />
Doctors were guessing between lung problems, virus infection, burn out, and depression. Apparently I had caught some kind of a virus in Brazil, but that wouldn't explain all the symptoms. It was pretty frustrating trying to convince them I was not depressed; maybe a bit pissed off because I couldn't climb. Later I have found out that most of the people with same diagnosis are usually first diagnosed with depression.<br />
<br />
I had plenty of time in the hospital, so I googled what could be wrong with me. Surprisingly, my symptoms matched a number of different types of cancer. But also exactly with over-active thyroid. Despite numerous blood tests, the thyroid levels hadn’t been tested yet. I guess it’s better business to diagnose with depression and keep people in the hospital with 1000 € per day rates.<br />
<br />
So I begged that they would test my thyroid levels, what they luckily did. They were 3x higher than than the maximum level for normal and finally I got medication for hyperthyroidism.<br />
<br />
I still needed to stay in infusion for some days, which was a pain in the ass. They didn’t give me enough food, so Anu brought me pizza and snacks every day. My metabolism was super fast, so even when I was just eating and staying in the bed, I lost 8 kg in two weeks. Yes, hyperthyroidism is an excellent way to lose weight. Unfortunately it's not contagious so I can't help out any fatties.<br />
<br />
Finally, after a week in the hospital I got out and went straight to see a thyroid specialist. That felt for the first time like someone actually knew what she was talking about. The dosage was at first doubled and then tripled. This of course led to nasty side effects and I had to change the medication.<br />
<br />
This was a few weeks ago. The new medication seems to be working and my thyroid levels are lowering nicely. I’m not allowed to do anything physical though. So, at the moment I am on sick leave, and so is the blog.<br />

After two days of medical tests we found out they didn't value our IRATA certs. We had to do a local "work at height” NR35-course. We did some hauling, climbed ladders and watched a video about a random guy committing suicide. Very informative, I had no idea what happens if you fall 30 meters to the ground.</div>

I'm pretty happy especially because it’s not too often climbing news reach mainstream media in Finland. The article is pretty long, and in Finnish, but there are some photos and short video clips that might be worth to check out even if you are not yet fluent in Finnish.<br />

For the past few years I have written quite a lot about climbing, but writing a real book has been just a distant dream. Suddenly, this dream is about to become reality as I just signed a publishing contract.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
For me Yosemite has always been the place to push my climbing forward. But before committing into a big route, I wanted to do a warm-up route. In 2013 I warmed up with Prow at Washington Column. This turned out to be a good move, so I wanted to do something similar again. A small bigwall gives you some idea about how fast you are moving, which again helps when calculating water and food for a bigger wall.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I decided to climb Washington Column South Face, which is probably the easiest bigwall in Yosemite. I still had some logistical problems. I knew I could do it in a day, but it was not easy to decide whether to start early or very late.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I didn’t have a car, so I would need to rely on the buses. I could take the first bus and start climbing in the morning, probably reaching the top just after the sunset. And this is not very good, because then I would need to either sleep at the top, or hike down in the dark (the descent is tricky enough in the day light). And of course buses are not operating in the night time so I would need to walk back to Camp 4.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Another solution would be to start to climb late in the evening and climb through the night (no crowds, maybe not a bad idea...). But then I would need to climb most of the route in the dark and start to climb when I would already be quite tired. Actually very tired as at the time I was usually waking up at 5 am and went to sleep at 10 pm.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Third solution would be to sleep at the base, but it felt like too much hassle. So I decided to take the first bus in the morning and change my down jacket to a sleeping bag (the weight difference is only 350 grams) to be able to sleep at the top after the climb.</div>

Notes:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- One grappling hook might be good to have if you need to climb in the rain</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- smallest C3s could have been nice</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- fleece or primaloft jacket could have been a bit warmer</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- a small sleeping pad would have been nice at the top</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- next time maybe more ange-draws instead of nineteens and more extra biners</div>

The quarry is turned into an arena for concerts, opera and now also for drytooling! Unfortunately the place is on private ground, and usually closed from entry. However, the local climbing club has limited access to the place.</div>

Sport climbing at Rote Wand was nice, but it's hard to beat longer routes. This was my 30th long route at Hohe Wand and I have a feeling that there will be many more.sakuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411844805890882515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089957656043429723.post-77809207863563631872015-10-30T14:59:00.000+02:002015-11-06T16:37:19.456+02:00How to travel to Yosemite by public transportIn Yosemite you don’t really need a car, at least if you are climbing on El Capitan or on other walls close to bus stops (the shuttle bus is free). So getting there by public transport is a nice way to save some money. And if you are travelling by yourself, it makes even more sense.<br />
<br />
Information is quite scattered, so I thought that my experience could help someone else as well. So, here is an info package on how to travel from San Francisco to Yosemite without a car:<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>1) Take the BART metro from San Francisco airport to Richmond</b> (9,85 $, about 1h 40 min).<br />
<br />
In the metro, you have to change from the yellow line (Pittsburg/Bay Point-SFO) to a red line (Richmond-Millbrae Line) or an orange line (Richmond-Fremont Line). You can do this in many stations, check out the metro map. (On Sundays the red line is not operating, so then you need to transfer at 19th St/Oakland or at MacArthur to the Orange line)<br />
<br />
Also, remember that it’s very difficult to get to Yosemite in the same day you arrive to San Francisco (unless you arrive very early), so I’d recommend staying one night in a hostel in San Francisco. There are many hostels very close to BART stops. For example “<a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/san-francisco-international-hostel-san-francisco-2">San Francisco International Hostel</a>" is only 200 meters from Powell station and a four person dorm is 38$/night/person (+$10 in cash for room key deposit). The hostel is pretty shitty and the elevator didn’t work, but it’s probably ok for one night. Then continue early so that you can take the first train/bus combo to Yosemite.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.bart.gov/">BART website</a><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>2) Take the AMTRAK-train from Richmond to Merced</b> (24 $ / 2 h 40 min).<br />
<br />
You can buy the ticket from the station, or an e-ticket at AMTRAK website. It’s a good idea to buy a train/bus-combo e-ticket. From Richmond, CA (RIC) to Yosemite, lodge bus stop, CA (YOS) (35 $).<br />
<br />
The first train from Richmond to Merced goes at 7:49 am and arrives at 10:31 am. Lines 713, 714 and 716 head to Yosemite.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amtrak.com/home">AMTRAK website</a><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>3) Take the YARTS-bus from Merced to Yosemite</b> (13 $ / 2 h 30 min)<br />
<br />
The first YARTS-bus after arriving to Merced goes at 11:00 am - 1:25 am. A later connection from Richmond goes at 1:34 pm - 4:13 pm and the bus from Merced goes at 5:30 pm - 8:22 pm.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://yarts.com/">YARTS website</a>. You can buy the ticket from the bus, or at the <a href="http://www.amtrak.com/home">AMTRAK website</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
In all transfers, you need to carry your bags less than 50 meters.<br />
<br />
When coming back, you just do the same other way round. It’s a good idea to book a late flight (departs late in the evening) back home. Then you don’t need to stay in a hostel again. The first YARTS-bus from Yosemite to Merced goes at 10 am, and you will be at the airport around 3:30 pm.<br />
<br />
Remember, if using public transport, you will arrive to Yosemite earliest in the mid day, and then it’s very difficult to get a campsite from Camp 4. It’s possible to <a href="http://www.recreation.gov/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NRSO&parkId=70927">book campsites</a> at Upper/Lower/North Pines (a campsite for six is 26€/night), and this might be a good backup for the first night. On the other hand, then you need to wake up at 4 am or so and hike to Camp 4 to wait in a line. You should be in the line latest at 6 AM. The first Yosemite shuttle bus starts at 7 AM so it’s not helping.<br />
<br />
Until you get a campsite, moving around in Yosemite with all your stuff might be tricky. Everything is much easier if you already have some friends at camp 4. If not, you can ask if you could borrow someone's bear box (You can't leave any food anywhere) or maybe leave some stuff at camp 4. A six-pack of beer might help in negotiations.<br />
<br />
Also, at least in 2015 it was ok to sleep in the Camp 4 waiting line, so this is also one solution for the first night. Sleeping in the forest is not allowed, but people do it.<br />
<br />
And this is important: normally you can stay up to 30 days in the valley, but in the summer season (May 1 - Sep 15) only seven days are allowed. However, time spent on a bigwall is not included, though you can't leave your tent at Camp 4. To avoid extra hassle, most climbers arrive on Sep 15 or later.<br />
<br />
Yosemite shuttle bus operates year round, but El Capitan shuttle operates from May 22 through October 12. So getting to El Cap might be harder after Oct 12 if you don't have a car.<br />
<br />

was a bit wet, but since I just came back from Yosemite, I was used to switching into "french free” mode. But even when pulling on gear,
it's still mandatory to climb a bit run out 7- on Durststrecke. “<i>Good

Pitch
nr 14. The whole route is bolted, but bolts are sometimes a bit far
apart. I got lost many times simply because I didn’t see the next bolt
and had no idea where to climb. It was also difficult to know what first
ascensionists had been thinking. Sometimes the route follows the
weakest line, sometimes it goes where the best climbing/rock is. </div>

We have been simul climbing quite a lot in the summer, and it’s been
nice so to see what’s possible for us. Sometimes simul climbing on hard
terrain (for us) can be a lot of fun, but usually it’s not. In
Durststrecke it would have made more sense to pitch normally the most difficult parts. I’m pretty sure this would have also been a faster way. We
did the route now in 5:20, which is not very fast by Austrian standards.<br />
<br />
<br />
Our gear:<br />
<br />
50-meter rope<br />
33 draws, (8x60cm long), <br />
8 extra biners <br />
4 x 60 cm slings<br />
3 x120 cm slings <br />
2 x 200 cm slings <br />
8 ropemans/tiblocs with screw biners <br />
Grappling hook<br />
<br />
Link-cams 1 & 2<br />
C3 #1<br />
<br />
Link-cams were nice to have, even though there was only very few cracks. A couple of more draws would have been nice, but on the other hand we would have needed plenty more to be able to climb the route with only one stop. I think we had a bit too many slings. 40 meters rope would have been better for simul climbing. 50 meters rope allows 25 meters rappels if needed, but rope lengths on Durststrecke are up to 60 meters so the extra 5 meters would not help too much. A grappling hook was pretty pointless on wet slabs.<br />

I just got back from Yosemite after five weeks in the valley. I did one
of the best climbs of my life but had some bad experiences as well.
Anyway, I managed to solo two bigwalls, which was nice.<br />
<br />
I took plenty of photos and video clips, so I will probably put together some kind of trip reports. Stay tuned!<br />

The traditional Häggstaträffen was arranged in
Stockholm last weekend. I was honored to be "the special guest”, which included
being spanked by an 8b trad route, and giving a lecture later in the evening. Previous years special guests have been some pretty known climbers, such as Daniel Andrada and Ines Papert, so I did my best not to suck.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
The weather wasn't too good, but it was very nice to climb with Swedes for a change. In Austria I've been climbing a lot by myself, which of course has been good training for my next trip. Still, it was nice to be reminded again about the friendliness of Swedish climbers. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Swedish climbing association also interviewed me and did an article about the event. You can find it from <a href="http://bergsport.se/2015/08/28/saku-korosuo-haller-foredrag-pa-haggstatraffen/">here</a> (in Swedish).</div>

This summer has been hot and sunny in Austria. We have mostly climbed at Hohe Wand, which is in the shadow after 3 pm and is actually pretty nice to climb at in the evenings. Still, we have waited for some cooler weather to climb again at Stadelwand. When the temps suddenly dropped to below 20, it was time to head towards Höllental. </div>

Zillertal, 24/7</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm sitting in the rain, trying to chop some onions without a table. I had totally forgotten how much pain in the ass camping could be. It's been years since we opened the tent last time. Going back from campervanning to tent-camping was a bigger step down than I ever would have expected. No heating, no shower, not even a f***ing table. We have been in this sport climbing mecca for only a few hours, but I'm already done. If I have to sit in the rain, I'd rather do it in the Dolomites.</div>

Dolomites, 25/7</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm sitting in the rain, once again trying to chop some onions without a table. My rain jacket doesn't hold water, which I kind of already knew. The rain jacket has only one job to do, to keep me dry, but for some reason it just sucks all the water in and stays wet for days.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Anu asks if there is anything we could do to make this more fun.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>"Yes, we could drive back home"</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In Mödling, the sun was shining, climbing was good, and beer was cheap. And it never took more than an hour to drive back home. But this is also the reason why we decided to drive a bit further this time. It's way too easy to get stuck at nearby crags.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Dolomites, 26/7</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The weather forecast is like a wet slap in the face. It's going to rain every day for the whole week, but surprisingly the best weather should be today. And in fact, this might be true. At least it's not raining anymore.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Few minutes later we are racking the gear. It's too late to climb anything big, but as long as we are moving fast, at least we should be able to climb something.</div>

Tofana di Rozes. Our route was Southeast Arete V+, 14 pitches, 482 meters of climbing. It's the sharp arête in the middle of the photo.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We were simul climbing and for some reason I expected that there would be more fixed gear. There was usually only one or two pitons for every pitch... I had a single trad rack, which would have been great for normal pitching, but was way too thin for simul climbing.</div>

Despite the name, the route doesn't go on the arête, but instead wanders around it. Routefinding was sometimes difficult, as it was pretty easy ground everywhere, and there was no fixed gear to follow.</div>

We had a 50m single rope and a 60m 6mm Rapline for pulling down the ropes. I'm testing a new method to tie the ropes together, without a biner. In my experience, while using a pull-down rope, the screw biner (which is usually clipped back to the single rope) is the reason why the ropes get stuck. It's also very difficult to swing the ropes free as the biner keeps the knots close to the single rope. This method still needs more testing, but so far, it seems to be better than the traditional method with a screw biner. Using this, I also attach myself to the pull-down rope, so it's not dangerous if the knots go through the rappelling ring.</div>

The scorecard system is similar to 8a.nu, but ranking is not the central point here.<br />
<br />
Making a topo is incredibly easy. You just take a photo, upload it to the website and draw the lines. For example, the online topo for <a href="https://27crags.com/crags/rosasberget/topos/ravinen-5221">Rösås</a> has long been the only existing guidebook for the sport sectors of the crag. Just a few months ago a <a href="http://www.borrbult.nu/p/webshop.html">new guidebook</a> from Northern Sweden was published and even though a physical book is nice to read, Internet topos have their advantages. New routes are made, holds break, and grades change. All the changes are easy and fast to update online, while with physical books you have to wait for the second edition (which you probably won’t buy as the old one is still sort of ok).<br />
<br />
27crags’ dream is to create a service where all the climbing topos would be possible to get straight to your mobile phone, with a possibility to use them offline as well. This dream took a huge step forward when they started a fundraising campaign to develop a 27crags-app.<br />

It started to rain, and soon the staff added some mat to the landing. I think the jump was scary enough even without the wet and slippery landing. Also, most of the bikers made the jump just barely over the gap, as you can see from the rubber on the banner.</div>

Bernardo Cruz was riding fast and landed nicely</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
However, after he was gone, there was a longer pause. The next competitor never came, and soon we heard police sirens. For a second we thought the biker had crashed, but then we heard a sound of an explosion.<br />
<br />
And then this happened:<br />
<br />

<br />
We heard more explosions and saw a few paramedics running the downhill track up as well. At first they were shouting something in Slovak, but then in English..."<i>Run, please run!</i>"<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
We took our stuff and started to run. Everyone else was doing the same thing, so we couldn't move too fast. The only way out, apart from the downhill track, was to climb up the stairs and then follow the street next to the wall of the castle.<br />

When we got a bit higher we saw why people were running. The downhill track was now filled up with rioters. They all were wearing black and their faces were covered with a scarf.<br />
<br />
This is what had happened on the lower part of the track:<br />

</div>
<br />
<br />
We tried to get out, but the road was blocked by rioters. I was tempted to take more photos, but these guys didn't look like they would like to be photographed. We hid our cameras and waited to see what would happen.<br />
<br />
The group of neo-nazis came right next to us, but they didn't do anything. They started to talk with the other rioters which were on the downhill track and even though I didn't understand anything, it sounded like they were a bit lost as well.<br />
<br />
Now the road was free so we decided to walk away. That felt like a good move, but suddenly we realized we were walking in the middle of group of rioters.<br />

The forest right next to us was covered by policemen. I was pretty happy I didn't wear black that day. Still, it didn't feel like the best idea to walk along with rioters so we slowed down a bit and let them walk ahead of us. They saw polices as well, and soon they took off their scarfs.</div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Later we found out that there had been a big demonstration of thousands of people (14 000 according to the organizers) in Bratislava against immigration, organized by the extreme right. Apparently some started to fight the</span> police and for some reason decided to destroy the downhill track as well. They also attacked a cameraman and some staff of the event. Three policemen were wounded, but apparently no one was seriously injured.<br />

Stadlwand is one of the biggest limestone walls in Höllental. It is located on the southern part of Schneeberg, but doesn’t continue to the top of the mountain. The top of the wall is at 1407 meters.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are a plenty of good-looking routes on the wall, but we decided to climb one of the easiest and longest ones. We started with the direct start to Richterweg, then climbed Richterweg and continued to the top via Stadlwandgrat. This continuous buttress/ridge is altogether about 800 meters (25 pitches) long and the hardest parts are around UIAA 5. Nothing too difficult, but it's still a lot of climbing. </div>

The route follows a buttress, but the direct start is not too obvious. The directions in the guidebook are quite detailed, and there was even a metal wire to show the starting point. Still, there was a Hungarian couple that was about to do the same route as we but wasn't sure where to start. We were pretty sure where the route would go, and started to climb. The other party was still not convinced and decided to bail even before starting the route. </div>

We simul climbed the route in 5 hours, stopping three times to gear up. 40 draws was a bit overkill compared to 4 cams… For some reason I thought that there would be more bolts. Next time (for simul climbing) I would take 30 draws (10 x 60cm), 10 extra biners, 8 cams, and 10 slings (120cm), and also a few 200cm slings. Nuts and tricams are slow to use and don’t work with ropemans so I wouldn’t take those. A 30-meter rope would have been better for simul climbing, but we decided to take 40-meter rope in case we would need to rappel.</div>
