Malta 2007

I have spent the last week in Gozo at a town called Xlendi. Pronounced Shlendy. I met a few great people there and got to finally do some absolutely incredible deep water soloing!! The climbing is astonishing here especially because the rock is world class, high, and strong and there is nobody else around on it. I didn't see a single climber the entire time that I didn't go with! It is awesome...awesome...great! I went back because I really liked the atmosphere and met some great people. By the way for those who don't know what deep water soloing is it is climbing the sheer cliffs with no ropes and only the water to stop your fall. Thanks a ton to Carmen and her brother for their awesome hospitality and showing me around the country. That dog will like me yet!

This is one of my most favorite climbs I have ever done. I got about 10 feet from the top of the door before I finally let go. It was an intense and incredible fall into the deep blue. In the picture is me and it was taken by Xavier of  <a href="http://www.gozoadventures.com">http://www.gozoadventures.com</a>. Climbing the Azure Window!

  • A second jump. A little lower then the first but not as terrifying!
  • We then climbed here at a place called the Inland Sea. The tunnel goes a few hundred yards out to the ocean. We traversed the left wall into the tunnel and climbed inside for a while. If we had a boat we could have had pictures! But as it was it was just fun fun fun!
  • With Dominant churches the rocks hide in the grotto. This place is incredible! There are only about 50 routes so far in this large area which stretches behind me and beyond the picture. The rock is superb and the quality of routes are amazing. Just waiting for first ascents!
