As a side event at the Kraftreich climbing gym, climbing cartoonist ERBSE set his pencil on fire. The funny portraits were very popular with climbers and guests.
After the prize-giving, the climbers rounded off the evening with relaxed sounds from the band LAID BACK.
The ClimbingZoo association and the Kraftreich climbing gym would like to sincerely thank all participating climbers, sponsors, and the participating climbing gyms.
