 | Kheops 8B - BD Athlete Carlo Traversi
13. 12. 2017 19:46:15
The archetypal Font classic. A blunt aréte that doesnt really make sense until you start climbing on it. The holds are terrible and it requires perfect body positions to feel possible.

You have to channel your inner Gecko to send this p... |
