Cube Runner Level Packs 2010

Franchard Isatis, paradise Fontainebleau

The curious name of the spot block, Isatis, made me want to learn more about the origin. I'm not sure I find, but it seems that Isatis match the name given to a small fox polar regions. Obviously, this does not seem to match the site Franchard Isatis Fontainebleau.
Anyway, the commercial block has truly delighted. The topo announces immediately that it is " one of the most popular forest ", we quickly understand why! The rocks are placed on a small sandy beach in the middle of the forest, guaranteed plenty of sunshine and shelter from the wind. TOP :-)
The spot is located west of Fontainebleau in taking the road that leads to Milly-la-Foret, near the parking lot of the Wolf Road. The topo
Franchard Isatis announces 4 circuits: Orange (AD), Blue (D-), Red (TD-) and White (ED). Unfortunately, we did not find the orange route. Perhaps because the first blocks were immediately caught our attention :-) These blocks:
- Block Red No. 19 (4c): Starting on the left edge of the block and then go grab a flat area on the right shoulder. Once both hands on, good traction (and I still remember it :-) with feet grip the block to catch the top of the rock.
- Blue Block No. 10 (4): Traverse from left to right of the block, not that difficult.
- White Block No. 29 (6): 1 hour of intense research to understand the movements and gain centimeter per centimeter were paying! A work of art, and also a perf for me, YES :-)
- Red Block No. 28 (5c): Bizar, this block is pretty well despite its rating. Not really making hand over the crack, requiring a balance on the feet foolproof.
