Climbing 'Remember We as Friends', a grade 7 in the stunning Ligurian Alps, is an experience etched in memory. The route itself, I found, was a beautiful tapestry of technical moves and sustained power endurance. The rock, typical of the area, offered a satisfying grip, albeit sometimes requiring careful footwork to avoid polishing. The crux, located about halfway up, involved a delicate traverse across a slightly overhanging section, demanding precise body positioning and unwavering confidence. The exposure adds a significant dimension to the climb; the views opening up with each meter gained, rewarding the effort with breathtaking panoramas of the surrounding peaks and the azure coastline in the distance. Success on 'Remember We as Friends' is not just about physical strength, but about mental fortitude, trusting your feet, and embracing the commitment to the line. The feeling of clipping the chains at the top, knowing you've overcome a challenging and aesthetically pleasing route in such a magnificent setting, is truly unforgettable. It's a climb that lives up to its name, forging a lasting bond with the rock and the memory of the experience.
