After a little debate about where to go, some faffing packing up our decorating clothes, and a short wait for the birthday-boy Boris to arrive, we decided to head off for the Peak's premier gritstone crag - Stanage...
We phoned the plumber this morning. I think French plumbers go to the same school as British plumbers. They could no longer come today, how about tomorrow?!?
Another sunny day, another adventure from our new guidebook. Voie Frison-Roche on the Brevent East Face is described as THE classic of the Aiguilles Rouge, so of course, it just had to be done...
We have a new guidebook - the new Michel Piola The Aiguilles Rouge (English version) - so we looked for something reasonably short for our first day in Chamonix...
This weekend Anna and I headed to The Downes hut to meet up with friends from our old climbing club in London. Paul headed south from Barnsley and also joined us.
It wasn't raining, but I was feeling cold and I didn't want to venture high. I wanted to avoid the potential crowds (!) on low-lying Lakeland rock and so I decided that we should head east to Yorkshire. I like the area near Austwick, so Pete picked a new venue for us - Pot Scar...
Last weekend Mina and I drove to the Northern Vosgese climbing spots about an hour from our place in Karlsruhe...
Tuesday evening is normally climbing time but work and weather seem to have colluded to prevent any activity until now...
Once you start you just can't stop again. In order to check out some of the climbs for Pete and the Gang for their fall trip to the Pfalz we climbed a MUST DO route...
