In the 1980’s the small town of Buoux in Southern France suddenly became the centre of the hard sport climbing universe. Climbing on bolts was still in its infancy, and Buoux saw grades explode, new moves like the “Figure 4” invented, and controversies brew.
Everyone in the climbing world wanted to go to Buoux to try the hardest routes in the world.
Then, just as quickly as Buoux became the hottest crag in the world, it slipped into obscurity.
Today let’s learn about what happened at Buoux during the 80’s. Why did it get popular? Who Was there? How did it fade from the scene? And why does it matter?
