In reply to bud the dog:
Hi Loz
have a look at the crags I said about, if you let me know where your staying I can let you know what is good close by, as for water we have had a lot of snow this year but it has been very warm so maybe not as much as years gone by, it is warm here in the day but cold at night at the moment so the big melt hasn't started yet, it normally kick off end of May or early June hence that is the high water time, depending on the speed of the melt depends how epic it can, if the melt hasn't really kicked in you could have low to medium water? if you drop me a email nearer the time i can let you know whats happening? best to contact me through my site
dream-trails.com.
ps you can also pick up a free via ferrata guide in a few outdoor shops, if you fancy a change?

sorry if it sounded I was having a go, just seamed a strange way to describe the area, there are lots of alpine and 300meter+ multi pitch routes bolted and trad but they are in another guidebook, glad you enjoyed the climbing you did here.

summer is a great time to climb here, the area has a med climate and boasts 300 days of sunshine a year ( i think this is a little optimistic but we do get a lot of sun) in summer mid 30 is norm, so if you like the sun great, or a lot of crags and sectuers are shady also the single pitch crags range in altitude from 950m to 2300m so you can go higher if hot, and one a two you can climb if wet,
you can climb here year roundish in mid winter on sunny day there are lower crags that are great, but i wouldn't come here just for rock climbing then, maybe mix ski or ice as well, march and april are normally nice we have been climbing most days since mid feb this year, end of april and start of may can be cooler and some times wet most years, summer i have said about, i really like september and october, its a little cooler and the alps are stunning as they change colour and no one here.
