Rock On!

Yesterday was probably the 1st proper day of summer here in Lochaber! Blue skies, sunshine and t-shirts! Unfortunately i was stuck inside studying but when Graham asked if i fancied an evening on rock i jumped at the chance. G had is eyes on Plague of Blazes E2 5b*** but unfortunately the route was still damp from the rain the night before so we headed back down the glen to Dundee Buttress. Here i lead Promises HS 4b**. A nice line i've done before, which made a nice intro back into this rock climbing business after the winter break. Once done G lead Dundee Weaver HVS 5a*, another route i did last year (to date my only HVS lead actually) but another very enjoyable one with a good crux. Finally G soloed The Old Wall VS 4b*** while i played photographer.



Great to get back on the rock but i'm still hoping to get a few more winter routes in before it all disappears!
