Pan, Piano, Perfo, Verdon, rive gauche, des ouvertures visionnaires September 12, 2011

image du billet charlotte-durif " Verdon - Grotte de Galetas, on est le 18 août 2011, il est un peu moins de 11h30, lorsque j'entame mon 11ème run dans Les 3 P... (pour Pan, Piano, Perfo). Cette création de Bruno Clément est une longue voie en plafond de grosse conti physique avec deux crux bien techniques et une section très rési limite bloc.
