			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a  href="http://www.boulderzclimbing.com/">Boulderz</a> was the host of the fourth competition in the Eastern division this year. Although the gym is quite a bit smaller than other venues, they managed to create space by splitting off the climbers into three groups (two on Saturday and one on Sunday). Andrew and his team of setters (Chris Muzilla, Tony Berlier and Aaron Eden) did a great job at putting up problems for both qualifiers and finals. Even though two of the men&#8217;s final problems, #2 and #4, were maybe slightly too hard, they still made for a great show! More importantly, they also seperated the finalists pretty well. Congrats to TJ Quan for winning his first ever Tour de Bloc competition! Once again, <a  href="http://www.allezup.com/">team Allez Up</a> did very well!</p>
<p>Here are a couple of my favourite pictures from the comp. Visit the <a  href="http://tourdebloc.com/TDB8/images.html">Tour de Bloc</a> site or my <a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/sets/72157625226574469/">flickr photostream</a> for more pictures.</p>
<div class="lang-fr">La quatrième compétition de l&#8217;Est était à <a  href="http://www.boulderzclimbing.com/">Boulderz</a> la semaine passée. Malgré le fait que le centre d&#8217;escalade est plutot petit, les organisateurs ont quand même réussis à créer de l&#8217;espace en séparant les compétiteurs en trois groupes (deux le Samedi et un le Dimanche). Andrewet son équipe d&#8217;ouvreurs (Chris Muzilla, Tony Berlier and Aaron Eden) ont fait un super bon travail avec les blocs de qualifs et les blocs de finales. Malheureusement, deux des problèmes de finale des hommes étaient un peu trop difficile (#2 et #4), mais ils étaient quand même super intéressant à regarder! Ils ont aussi fait une très bonne séparation des finalistes. Je me dois de féliciter TJ Quan pour sa toute première victoire dans un Tour de Bloc! Et encore une fois, le <a  href="http://www.allezup.com/">team Allez Up</a> a très bien réussi la fin de semaine passée!</p>
<p>Voici quelques-unes de mes photos préférer de la compétition. Allez visiter le site du <a  href="http://tourdebloc.com/TDB8/images.html">Tour de Bloc</a> ou mon <a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/sets/72157625226574469/">photostream flickr</a> pour plus de photos.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A brand new climbing spot has just re-opened in Ontario. After about ten years of being closed, the Halfway Log Dump is finally opened for business. Once again, the <a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/">OAC</a> was instrumental in the negotiations with the Bruce Peninsula National Park to re-open this amazing bouldering area, situated on the Bruce Peninsula of the Georgian Bay (Lake Huron). Here is what awaits you, if you get a chance to make it up there this summer. Before you head there, please download the <a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/images/stories/ACCESS_media/HWLD_Interpretive_Bouldering_Guide_v1.pdf">guide from the OAC</a> and follow the few rules. Enjoy!!</p>
<div class="lang-fr">Un tout nouveau spot de grimpe vient de réouvrir en Ontario. Après avoir été fermé à peu près dix ans, le &#8220;HalfWay Log Dump&#8221; est finalement accessible pour tous les grimpeurs. Encore une fois, l&#8217;<a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/">OAC</a> a vraiment été un joueur clé dans les négociations avec les gens du Parc National de Bruce Peninsula pour la réouverture de ce spot de bloc, situé sur la Bruce Peninsula de la Baie Georgienne (Lac Huron). Voici ce qui vous attends, si vous decidez d&#8217;aller voir ce superbe spot de bloc cet été. Avant d&#8217;y aller, downloader le <a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/images/stories/ACCESS_media/HWLD_Interpretive_Bouldering_Guide_v1.pdf">topo de l&#8217;OAC</a> et suivez les quelques règles.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A while ago I stumbled upon a pretty cool photo project by <a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/">Simon H&oslash;gsberg</a>, a freelance photographer based in Copenhagen, Denmark. The title of the article I was reading about him was &#8220;<a  href="http://content.photojojo.com/photo-projects/the-widest-photo-ever/">Did Simon Hogsberg Shoot the Widest Photo Ever Taken?</a>&#8221; and the title of the photo is <a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/we_are_all_gonna_die/slider.html">We&#8217;re All Gonna Die</a> (click on the link to see the full picture!). The goal of the project, according to the artist, was not to scare his audience, but to help us realize how special life really his and to remind us to live life to the fullest! Take your time to look carefully at the photo; it&#8217;s full of interesting details. I particularly like the guy with the baby in a sling.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/we_are_all_gonna_die/slider.html"><img src="http://www.bonuel.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/we_are_all_long.jpg" alt="we_are_all_long" title="we_are_all_long" width="600" height="104" class="size-full wp-image-1338" /></a></p>
<hr />
<div class="lang-fr">Il y déjà quelques semaines j&#8217;ai eu la chance de découvrir un projet photo assez hors de l&#8217;ordinaire. Le titre de l&#8217;article est &#8220;<a  href="http://content.photojojo.com/photo-projects/the-widest-photo-ever/">Est-ce que Simon Hogsberg a pris la photo la plus large du monde?</a>&#8221; (Voyez par vous-meme en clicquant sur la photo en haut!). En fait, c&#8217;est plutôt le sujet ordinaire qui rend ce projet vraiment interessant. Le photographe est <a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/">Simon H&oslash;gsberg</a>, qui vit à Copenhague au Danemark. Le projet s&#8217;intitule <a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/we_are_all_gonna_die/slider.html">We&#8217;re All Gonna Die</a>, ce qui veut dire &#8220;Nous allons tous mourrir&#8221;. Le but du projet, d&#8217;après Simon n&#8217;était pas de faire peur aux gens, mais plutôt de nous faire réaliser que nous devrions toujours profiter de la vie au maximum! Quelle belle philosophie!!</div>
<p>Make sure you check the many projects Simon has on <a  href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/">his personal site</a>. In the meantime, check out one of my personal favourites:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In honor of the upcoming <a  href="http://www.tulipfestival.ca/">Canadian Tulip Festival</a>, ongoing for the next three weeks in Ottawa, I am sharing a bunch of Tulip shots I took a while ago. Here is a little blurb from their website explaining when and why this festival started:</p>
<blockquote><p>In the fall of 1945, Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs. The gift was given in appreciation of the safe haven that members of Holland&#8217;s exiled royal family received during the Second World War in Ottawa and in recognition of the role which Canadian troops played in the liberation of the Netherlands.</p></blockquote>
<div class="lang-fr">En l&#8217;honneur du <a  href="http://www.tulipfestival.ca/">Festival Canadien des tulipes</a>, qui se déroule pendant les trois prochaines semaine, je partages avec vous quelques photos de tulipes que j&#8217;ai prises il y a quelques semaines. Voici un petit extrait du leur site web qui explique depuis quand et pourquoi le festival existe:</p>
<blockquote><p>À l&#8217;automne 1945, la princesse Juliana des Pays-Bas a fait cadeau de 100 000 bulbes de tulipes à Ottawa, par reconnaissance envers l&#8217;asile que la famille royale en exil y a trouvé, pendant la Deuxième guerre mondiale, ainsi qu&#8217;envers le rôle des troupes canadiennes dans la libération des Pays-Bas.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This past Saturday, the <a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/">Ontario Access Coalition</a> participated in an Earth day event hosted by the Friends of the Glen, along with other groups like the Bruce Trail Club and “Leave No Trace.” On behalf of the OAC, about a dozen boulderers volunteered their time to work with the naturalists of the <a  href="http://www.niagaraparks.com/">Niagara Parks Commission</a> to help take an inventory of the spring wildflowers that grow on top of the boulders. The event was a great success. Climbers enthusiastically learned about the flora and fauna of the glen and the Parks staff were equally excited to learn about bouldering! Speaking of which, we did manage to do some &#8220;pebble wrestling&#8221; for a few hours at the end of the day. Here are some photos (taken using my latest camera gadget, a monopod!):</p>
<div class="lang-fr">Ce Samedi passé, le <a  href="http://www.ontarioaccesscoalition.com/">Ontario Access Coalition</a> a participé  à un événement pour le jour de la Terre organisé par l&#8217;association &#8220;The Friends of the Glen&#8221;, avec d&#8217;autre groupe comme &#8220;Bruce Trail Club&#8221; et &#8220;Leave No Trace&#8221;. Représentant l&#8217;OAC, une douzaine de boulderers ont travaillés avec les naturalistes de <a  href="http://www.niagaraparks.com/">Niagara Parks Commission</a> pour aider à inventorier les plantes qui poussent sur les blocs. L&#8217;événement fût un grand succès! Les grimpeurs étaient enthousiastes d&#8217;apprendre à propos de la faune et la flore du Glen, et le personnel du Parc était également très motiver d&#8217;en apprendre plus sur notre sport. Parlant de bloc, nous avons quand même réussis à grimper quelques heures après (et j&#8217;ai pu tester mon tout nouveau gadget: monopod!):</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On the menu for this week&#8217;s <a  href="http://www.bonuel.ca/blog/category/photo-monday/">Photo Monday</a> are some of my best shots from the last leg of the 7th <a  href="http://www.tourdebloc.com">Tour de Bloc</a>. It was held at Toronto&#8217;s newest climbing facility: <a  href="http://truenorthclimbing.com">True North</a>. The gym is really impressive! Big spaces, lots of good angles, and very cool textures. It&#8217;s definitely worth a visit if you climb in Toronto! The four final problems were set on a huge, spectator-friendly bouldering wall (so cool), and this time around Dustin Curtis teamed up with the tour&#8217;s head route-setter, Jody, to set some of the most spectacular problems yet. See for yourself&#8230;</p>
<div class="lang-fr">Au menu cette semaine pour le <a  href="http://www.bonuel.ca/blog/category/photo-monday/">Photo Monday</a>: Une s&eacute;lection de mes meilleurs photos de la derni&egrave;re comp&eacute;tition du <a  href="http://www.tourdebloc.com">Tour de Bloc</a> (avant les r&eacute;gionaux &agrave; Qu&eacute;bec). La comp&eacute;tition &eacute;tait au tout nouveau gym d&#8217;escalade de Toronto: <a  href="http://truenorthclimbing.com">True North</a>. Le centre d&#8217;escalade est vraiment tr&egrave;s tr&egrave;s bien. Il y a beaucoup d&#8217;espace, de beaux angles, et de la super texture sur les murs. Nous avons eu droit &agrave; quatre probl&egrave;mes de finals cette fois-ci, et puisque Dustin Curtis a aid&eacute; Jody &agrave; ouvrir les probl&egrave;mes, ils &eacute;taient super sp&eacute;ctaculaires! Voyez par vous-m&ecirc;me&#8230; </div>

<p><a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/4471281691/" title="Bonnie almost sticking the last hold on problem #4. by Bonuel, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4017/4471281691_394e6c9799_b.jpg" width="600" height="900" alt="Bonnie almost sticking the last hold on problem #4." /></a><br />
Bonnie almost sticking the last hold on problem #4. Mind you, this doesn&#8217;t properly represent her winning performance (she flashed the first 3 problems!), but it&#8217;s a cool shot.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/4472065344/" title="Superman! by Bonuel, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2792/4472065344_1e88bea7a2_b.jpg" width="600" height="900" alt="Superman!" /></a><br />
Superman! Again, Ayo did superbly in the finals. </p>
<p><a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/4472069370/" title="Tash easily finishing up problem #4. by Bonuel, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4010/4472069370_52c4a0cb68_b.jpg" width="600" height="900" alt="Tash easily finishing up problem #4." /></a><br />
Tash easily finishing up problem #4. This shot is not extra-ordinary, but I wanted to include a shot of Tash in this post because he climbed an amazing final round! In fact, he climbed it so quickly that I couldn&#8217;t get a better shot than this one&#8230; oh and did you notice the cast on his right ankle?</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/4472073108/" title="Chris flying on problem #3 by Bonuel, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4472073108_b376f11884_b.jpg" width="600" height="900" alt="Chris flying on problem #3" /></a><br />
Chris flying on problem #3. Muzzillo is one of the most chill climbers &#8211; and so strong! (He placed 5th).</p>
<p>There are more shots on <a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/sets/72157622820213436/">flickr</a>. Make sure you stop by.</p>
<div class="lang-fr">Il y a d&#8217;autre photos sur <a  href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonuel/sets/72157622820213436/">flickr</a>. Allez-voir &ccedil;a!</div>
