My hardest project yet

It is the last day here on Lofoten we had a really good breakfast, and now it’s time to pack the crashpads for the last try. Chalkbag, shorts, fan, Clifbars, a left scarpa instinct, and a right Furia air. Just the perfect combination. I have to do it. I’ve climbed this boulder a hundred times, but only in my head. So now it’s time to put it on the wall. To this moment, I have done all the moves but one, the crux move. But I know now how it works. No heel hook, just putting my left foot out as far as I can and then slowly controlled take my right hand up to the small crimp and then bump up to the jug. Everything is now stuffed into the crash pads, and it’s time to leave the campsite. The boulder is just a few hundred meters away. We park at the side of the road and walk the last 150 meters to the bloc. It’s just so beautiful, even though it’s right beside the E10, the main road in Lofoten.
