Longridge - something around 6a/b ish. Any suggestions?
Whilst it's a great line, I don't think Groundhog is a giveaway at the grade!
Another one- do a "Jerry's" problem - Jerry's Arete, Jerry's Traverse, Jerry's Problem, etc.
Realised I'd not posted these:Aims for 2011Bouldering: Tick more 7Bs. Tick at least one problem harder than 7BTrad: E4Sport: Onsight 7a, Redpoint 7cWinter: Tick some of the classic Vs from Cold Climbs. Ski at least two gullies on the tick listGeneral: Something Alpine
A good haul of low to mid 7's in the two planned trips to the forestas per yyfyRetour aux Sources (7a), Les Sabots d'Hélène (7a/7a+), Le Mur de la Fosse aux Ours (7a), Opéra Tchétchène (7a+), Plats de Saison (7a/7a+), Sa Pelle au Logis (7a), Jokari 7a+ (7a), Le Journal du Hard (7a+/b) and Sale Affaire 7a (flash)Still got one more trip planned...Go to St BeesStill in the development stageTrain sensibly without over doing itSo far so goodMaybe get in some gritNot yetMake sure I get enough sleep.... hopefully Jr T will be more accomodating than in 2010So far so good - thank you little manKeep the faith when it seems like it's one step forward, two steps backwards....So far so good

After the massive success of 2010, most of my list rolls over. Although I've taken a couple out that just felt impossible and added some stuff nearer by.1. Buckstone Dyno- Not far off, but a miss......2. Screaming Slave Woodwell Stupidly close before, seem further away again?!?!3. Picnic Sarcastic +/- SDS Not been4. West Side Story Not been5. Jerry's Arete (Bridestones) Not been6. Sloping Beauty (Earl) Not been7. Underhand (Almscliff) May have to exchange this for The Keel as my finger doesn't like the slot. Not been8. Vitruvian Man (Trowbarrow) Not been9. Red Wall Project Shhh, esoteric venue. Yes!! But still a handful of other esoteric things to finish off10. Big Marine (Craig Y Longridge) Not been
Hmm, been having quite a long think about this. I didnt really set any aims for 2010, but managed to consolidate on 7a and 7a+ and pinch my first 7b.. I seem to have quite a few projects - so in no particular order...YorkshireUnderhand - possibly the extension if the first part goes early in the year. Done (not extension)A few 7a/7a+'s to mop up: Steves wall, Patta's arete, the traverse next to it. Got steves wall the other week - others waiting..Stu's roof LH - nearly got the stand done, think the first part may be a go-er Makign progress, but split tip and nail on the crimps put me off..Possibly have a play on the Keel if I'm a good boy... Making some progress on the keel.. new clif projectStart doing some more stuff at Caley! Why I dont go there so often I dont know...PeakLots of unfinished nearly business in the Peak... At plantation, Green Traverse (without heels or mega dabs..), Deliverance (a long saga..), Deleverance traverse.. NTBTA no no and no... though green traverse sans heels is getting there..At Curbar, Guerilla Warfare/Early doors (was playing on these today.. surely a matter of time....?), Maybe a speculative look at Great White.. Done neither - but did Seans Arete (7B aims done!)Beach Ball. So close grr...West Side Story. Never tried it, but suspect it may suit my strengths (lank and no campusing..) may be one to work... had a play - one to work..A 7 at Rubicon. (I suspect this is the hardest for me of anything I've suggested above!) More chance of seeing the Popes cock..Weedkiller traverse at the Tor (I think its called that..) not beenWalesGo to the cave again, and see whether a years worth of training has given me any more ability to get off the ground on anything with a 7 in it! Been, been shut down Cae Du. Have a proper trip there - camp by the beach and loaf around the boulders when the pollen is bad in the Summer!Other bits and bobs.. A good few things at Harmers I was getting close to that I need to nail.. another one for the Summer. Making some good progress at HarmersThe flakey face thing at Wimberry
