Friday glee wants to be a Bleausard

The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week. It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun.

To enhance this week's glee, and because of where I went last weekend -- FONTSPAM!!!

The forest of Fontainebleau is probably the largest and best-developed bouldering areas in the world. It has everything from circuits aimed at small children to some of the hardest bouldering problems in the world.

Oh, and it's very, very beautiful.
