Fontainebleau Boudering Trip

Last week was our annual trip to Fontainebleau for some bouldering fun in the forest. I was feeling week and tired so was expecting much, just a nice break from life and some bouldering with friends.
The weather held all week a part 7pm on the last day when it decided to rain so we could not complain, but we did it has been too warm some days and it meant no climbing on the last. Least it meant we got home a little earlier then normal and 1200 miles later.

Here is mine and Deb's tick this from this trip
