It has been a great day. Sunny and beautiful. Everthing perfect. I went to the Mindelheimer Klettersteig in Austria to enjoy climbing.

Then after two third of the I twisted my knee. I was very clumsy in that moment. Then it was really tough to go on. I still had a long way to go. But see for yourself:

With the injury it took me a Long Long time to get through. Eventually at 9pm I was back at the car. I had started at 7am.

It has not been my day.

November 2018 my knee still has not recovered. If it doesn't I need an operation. The consequence would be that I will miss the whole season 2019. I could go on climbing in 2020.

Playing dark ominous music causes accidents every time :)

Cool video, anything that fun in this country (Angels Landing) is wall to wall people.
