About Fontainebleau — Gorges d'Apremont

Vast historic massif on a sandstone ridge with 500+ problems across all grades. The upper boulders dry quickly after rain while the lower gorge floor (Fond des Gorges) can stay damp an extra day. Same Font sandstone rule applies — wait until rock is fully dry.
