At last the final volume of the La Pedriza is finished!
After a month in Albarracin we returned to Pedriza and discovered many more spectacular lines. The local crew had been busy and discovered more awesome boulder problems.
On the crux of Martina Dry
Claire returned to Los Guerreros and quickly dispatched her project - I think the steeper climbing of Albarracin had improved our fitness a little. I was still plagued by my elbow/shoulder injury so unfortunately my projects were off the agenda. However, I still climbed some beautiful lines and had a great time climbing with the local crew again.

Rob and Sam (the English guys we'd met in Albarracin) joined us too. They really liked Pedriza too, but needed a week for their skin to toughen up... Al and Jen (the Scottish couple we'd met in Albarracin) joined us also. They were a great crowd to climb with and we tried to show them the sights of the area.
It was great to catch up with all of the local guys again. They showed us a new area near El Boalo and we climbed a stunning arete called El Pajillero (shown on video thumbnail above). I won't tell you what the name means since its not such a beautiful name...! It was very sad to leave Pedriza and we will really miss the local crew. It was great to meet such warm, friendly, kind and generous people - THANK YOU GUYS, WE WILL MISS YOU....!
