School days
Ive not done much climbing since Bosigran but I have certainly been busy. We have finally made the move to Fort William and what a weekend to do it – the sun was splitting the sky’s! Since moving up its been full throttle with a day out re-learning multipitch rescue scenarios with Craig and Al plus an inspirational day out with Kev who made a first ascent of his new route Arrakis Taught E3/4 (5c)……..
Monday morning, 0420 the alarm is going off. Usual for a mid-winter tick but for Kev who wanted optimal rock conditions this was essential. We met up with Dave and Sean so I knew what Kev was about to attempt was going too be pretty important. As it turns out Kev didn’t go for his intended repeat of Pallor E7/8 but instead, consolidated with a superb new E3/4 up a lovely steep slab that Kev made look easy! A great day to be out and see how its done!
