Climbing in the Lakes & North Wales

Looking out over the Langdale valley from Gimmer crag



Our first foray towards preparing for the cassin route on the Piz Badile, in July - we convinced ourselves to make the most of the most stunning weather over the weekend last week...





Well we had an eventful day route finding, re-routing, dodging wet rock and generally enjoying ourselves on Tryfan, after another mid-night raid from Sheffield!

Don't know who the cutest is???
