Soyhières (Switzerland) is one of the crags that I have wanted to visit for a long time. It is the southern tip of Basel Jura—a larger area where I climbed many years ago.

Most of the routes in Basel jura are rather short, fingery, savage, but Soyhières has some longer and pumpier routes.

I was lucky to have Katy Choong, my teammate from @mammut as a guide as she is the local climber here, and she grew up climbing in this crag.

The goal was to sample some of the hard classics, and try to onsight all of them. Actually, those days when I am trying to onsight a bunch of routes in a day are possibly the most fun days for me.

I saved some of the routes from the 9th grade for another trip. There is also some potential for more bolting (maybe even cracks). Maybe the world's hardest crack is awaiting there.
