Tout A Blocs
By : DrT
Every summer, climbers gather at the doorstep of Les Ecrins to participate in the Tout A Blocs. That event has it all: outdoor plastic comp, killer summer bouldering, a film festival and of course a big tombola. Damn, they even have a hot chick walking around with a big sign just like in boxing!
Ailefroide is one of the nicest area I visited in France. You gotta check it out if you're around, it's worth the detour. Make sure you climb one of their calssic multi-pitch slab on perfect granite or even just walk around to a nearby glacier.
Visit the official website for videos of last year final and of the local bouldering.
