BOULDERING this week
July 20, 2009, 08:13:18 pm
seeing as everyone has lost their minds recently and are out sport climbing, is anyone going bouldering to any decent crags, preferably child friendly ones?

Andi on the string, you're having a laugh! He's probably still shaking from his near groundfall trying to clip the last on Smooth Torquer  :jaw:

Nothing up this way will be dry today. Raining very heavy and has been for a while. Cave sounds like your best bet.

Just got a text from a psyched Crouch who's spending the week in Wales, apparently the cave is "damp but drying out now"

I presume you go south along the M60 and that way around? If so I'm out of your reach, never mind.
