Ainhize Belar Barrutia, 17, does Welcome to Tijuana (8c)
Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Café solo was one of the few crags that was dry because it has been raining a lot so I decided to try it. It’s a short route with very powerful movements, especially if you are not tall, but I enjoyed it a lot.
What are your summer plans?
Now I want to do some projects that I have close to home and in August I will go to Ceuse and Frankenjura to know other places. I have national competitions after summer (Lead especially) but now I’m more focused on the rock.
