Where would be the best place in Europe to flik some legal big walls in early to mid October...for someone who has zero big wall experience?

swiss vally should be nice, check weather with local, honer hotel is nice they have bar with internet and disco with bar on second floor the third floor is your room and nice view of the vally or there is a camp site near by they have a little cabin, laundry room, hot shower,restaurant, or just bring you tent but all the base jumper is at honer it is not big walls but you well have good time, if there is not much snow you can make it to eiger and jump the mushroom now that's big wall for sure

I was under the impression that the swiss valley wasn't the best spot to figure stuff out...

Hope your leg is healing well bro.

yellow O if you can track and don't open high there is no problem, yellow is nicely overhanged, LM half way down there is ledge and the wall stick's out so if you don't track out and have 180 you got big problem, if you track out 3/4 of way's down and have 180 you well be away form the wall so no problem unless you have hesitation which i have one had to land down wind . I seen guy's open half way down on LM with no problem but they are really close to the wall, you know it is just like any object if you get 180 you can be in trouble so get your track on it is a fun place.

Hello,

I have been to the Swiss valley for many years now and my opinion is that is very dangerous, for allot of reasons. Some of my friends disagree. But if you ask me I would agree that the Swiss valley is not the best place to figure things out …

It is beautiful, like allot of dangerous things are … so if you decide to go I would take you friends advice and … well … take it to the streets :) You see what I mean on Exit

Stay alive!
