Esk Buttress

Sunday, 9th June 2013

I reckon one of the more remote and wonderful Lakeland valleys is Eskdale. However, it's a longish walk to get there, one is out of sight of all sign's modern life such as roads, and there's hardly even any paths...

Gouther & Jackdaw Scar Crags

Sunday, 2nd June 2013

Two weekends of fine weather! I can’t remember when that last happened, I just hope – with every fibre of my being – that it can continue…

Spring Bank on Spring Bank

Tuesday, 28th May 2013

We had planned to go to Skye for the Spring Bank holiday, but Pete was still recovering from a bad cold and we didn’t feel up for the journey. Instead, the forecast was good for the Lakes, so we decided to stay at home.

Fairfield Horseshoe and Latrigg

Thursday, 16th May 2013

Someone from Staveley once told me that there was no point going abroad in May, as it was the best time to climb in the Lakes. Well, that was a few years ago, and climate change has since been introduced by the government.

Slape Crags, Carrock Fell

Tuesday, 7th May 2013

As Ian’s post shows, Monday’s weather dawned very disappointingly! The wall-to-wall sunshine promised by the weather forecasters just wasn’t to be seen. We procrastinated for a couple of hours knowing that early starts are unwise for rock climbing at this time of year, thus allowing the rock to warm up.

Fairfield Horseshoe Recce

Monday, 6th May 2013

With the Fairfield Horseshoe Race next Saturday, Anna and I decided that it would be a good day to recce the route.

St Sunday Crag, Pinnacle Ridge

Sunday, 5th May 2013

The bank-holiday weekend started off wet, and it had rained a fair bit on Friday, so we knew most crags would still be wet. Consequently after a short debate (unusually short for us, it normally takes ages to decide) as to what we should do and where we should go, we decided upon the classic …

Coniston Fell Race

Saturday, 4th May 2013

Being a glutton for punishment, Anna decided that today she would enter the Coniston Fell race

Oops, nearly forgot this one!

Monday, 29th April 2013

Oops, I nearly forgot the fact that thanks to Richard making his regular visits to all the shops he looks after for Cordee in the Lakes, he and I grabbed a couple of routes after work on Monday evening at Raven Crag Walthwaite in Langdale…
