Harry Pothead

It was a beautiful day. We walked through the woods towards the rock to find Harry Pothead and we started on that one. (I also managed to drop my chalkbag on the way). I tried to do the route traditional but it was really poorly protected so I had to use some of the bolts. Also it was supposed to be a 4+, 5+ and 5+ (according to the book) but then I read somewhere that it was actually 5+, 5+ and 6- with a somewhat scary end. I was told Christoph was a really good climber but she forgot to tell me he was a sportsclimber (!) there is quite a difference. So I had to lead everything but actually I loved it!  We started as three but then G didn't want to go any further than the first pitch so I lowered her down and she waited for us down there. When we came down we had pancakes for lunch and then we drove to Hægefjell. Had a look around and pitched our tents. At Baremslandsfjellet we were totally alone on the wall but here was a lot of tents. Mainly swedish people and a lot more coming tonight as we heard.
