Spring has sprung

I spent last week working for Hereford & Worcester Army cadets. They were a great bunch and enjoyed a week of climbing, caving, canoeing and walking in the Brecon Beacons. Here is a photo of some of them on the top pf Pen Y Fan last Tuesday.




After work on Friday I headed to Windcliffe with a friend and we spent a very pleasant couple of hours climbing on warm limestone - we could easily have been in Spain.

We headed up to North Wales on Saturday morning and left the crowds behind by doing some good mountain routes, the best of which was Grey Slabs Arete, above and right of the Idwal Slabs, which goes at HVS 5a and is on wonderful rock.

I joined up with another friend, Andy, on Sunday and we headed into the Llanberis Pass. We did Diagonal on Dinas Mot and then Skylon on Carreg Wasted.
