Le Voyage, E10 7a, for Caro Ciavaldini
Caro Ciavaldini has made the second female ascent of Le Voyage, E10 7a, in Annot, France.
This week's Friday Night Video documents the shifting priorities that come with raising a son in a world that revolves around climbing and the outdoors. Follow Caroline Ciavaldini and James Pearson as they navigate their new lives, try to maintain their sponsorships and continue their expedition-led lifestyles.
When they considered having children in 2018, the couple asked themselves tough questions about how their free-spirited lifestyle might change. Would Caroline be able to return to form post-birth? How would they introduce their child to risk-taking and exploration? Would Caro and James' perspectives on their own risk-taking change?
New Life follows the couple as they embark on a life of new adventures as a family: from climbing in Sardinia while Caro is heavily pregnant to adapting to life at home with a newborn in the south of France, and Caro's journey from struggling on easy routes to attempting the notorious trad route Gaia (E8 6c) and an 8b multi-pitch sport climb in the Verdon.
