Huge steep wall suddenly looming out of nowhere. It's raking up to the bend, this hurts. Once you get to the bend, you get rid of the heaviness, although it is still a nasty walk. It is also rather narrow, so watch out. Short, but powerful!... read more

Huge steep wall suddenly looming out of nowhere. It's raking up to the bend, this hurts. Once you get to the bend, you get rid of the heaviness, although it is still a nasty walk. It is also rather narrow, so watch out. Short, but powerful!

Enorm steile muur die plots uit het niets opdoemt. Het is harken tot aan de bocht, dit doet pijn. Eenmaal de bocht genomen ben je van het zwaarste af, al blijft het nog vervelend doorlopen. Het is ook wel smalletjes, dus opletten. Kort, maar krachtig!
