Hog Farm

Inspired by a friend who doesn't leave the crag until its dark, Christoffer Westin dawned a headlamp for one last try on Hog Farm 7a+, Gåseborg. An excellent route with a bearable name if you don't consider the context of the crag.

Know your history?

So it doesn't happen again... We're not keeping anything alive but a reminder of what should never be allowed to reoccur. Censorship is for the ignorant and/or manipulative...

Stockholm Classics I

Easily the best sequence at Gåseborg; Tudor is often over-looked. Only once have I seen someone on route who I did not persuade to try it and he happened to be a Dutch on vacation. Could it be that we avoid certain routes because of their grade? And did I mention, that unlike many of its neighbors, Tudor has large, soft holds? Christofer Westin on a seldom climbed Stockholm Classic, Tudor 6c, Gåseborg.

Blitz

It's not that we haven't been climbing, we have. We just haven't had time to pick up the camera. Kristin cruising Blitz, 6b, Gåseborg.
