Spain Update #2

So we´ve been climbing in the Terradets for the pat few days. A few days ago we stopped in Santa Linya for an afternoon and I climbed Ingravid Serps, 8c on the third try. I had tried the route once in January but I forgot all the beta so I had to work it out again. Its a cool route but the first anchor it ends at is completely pointless. The headwall above is really cool and only changes the grade to 8c/8c+, so theres really no reason to end at the first part. If I go back Ill re-climb it to the top.

In the Terradets I have tried La Essencia de Resistencia, 8c+ 6 times now and have fallen 3 times on the very last hard move. Hopefully tomorrow Ill finish it up, which also happens to be my 18th birthday!
