Moritz Welt does Adularia (8C) and Hazel Grace (8B+)

Moritz Welt, with five 8C’s to his name, has sent Adularia (8C) and Hazel Grace (8B+) in Gottardo.

Can you tell us more about the trip and the highlights?
My girlfriend and I were planning to have a one month bouldering trip to the alps, to enjoy some cooler summer conditions. It was our first time in Gottardo and I didn't have high expectations, my main goal was to check out Hazel Grace. Did that and a lot of nice classic climbs during our first week. Also had a session on Bonjour Finesse (8B) which suited me quite well and went down fast. So I checked out both lower starts on our second week. The start of Adularia did not suit me so well (it is quite morpho and most previous ascentionists are rather tall) but I figured out my own method. Took me four sessions in total to finish it. Happy with how the first two weeks of the trip have turned out! :) Now unfortunately the alpine weather turned pretty bad so we decided to leave and head on to France. :)
