I'd call that a very good year Ali. I was there the day Hazel did Orinoci Flow. It looks outrageous. There was a send train of very enthusiastic wads (Cedar Wright, Bransby, Malcolm HB, Rob Greenwood) waxing lyrical about it but it was way above my paygrade so was content just to be a belayer. Maybe in a future life I'll go back.
Hell of a ticklist there Ali. Brought back some great memories of my own time climbing on Taipan. The best crag in the world for me, just edges past Ceuse.
I'm amazed there were that many to be honest. Not sure there was ever more than one other pair there when I was.
Empire Strikes Back, Cheddar - Sharp, eliminate, and at Cheddar, so it was never going to be a good route but it was always a fun day out with Rhos who was on her way to doing the first proper repeat of the extension.
I thought Tom Newberry's repeat was 100% valid?
