Sense Retorn on Mont Rebei, the MP dedicated to Hansjörg Auer
Copia link
Over 10 days in April 2019 Belgium’s Siebe Vanhee teamed up with Spain’s Roger Molina and Jorge Solórzano to make the first ascent of a demanding new rock climb up the Pared de Catalunya rock face on the immense Mont-Rebei on the border between Cataluña and Aragon. Navigating past difficulties up to 7c+ and often through sections of loose rock, the trio forged the route ground-up using cams, pitons, skyhooks, stoppers and, when left with no other choice, here and there an obligatory bolt. Vanhee returned on 5 May with Miguel Mas to make the first free ascent of what has now been called Sense retorn - No turning back, in memory of their friend Hansjörg Auer who perished along with David Lama and Jess Roskelley while climbing Howse Peak in Canada in April 2019.
