The Rhinogs
October 26, 2004, 10:52:23 pm
Just wondered if anybody had actually bouldered here. I've been avoiding exploring this area of great promise for years, but this winter I'm going to bite the bullet and go for a wander.

So, has anybody been exploring in this neck of the woods?

'fraid not old chap, but I know a friend who went to do routes and said that it's very nice but quite esoteric, and hard to walk around (few paths and shit). One would expect with the amount of rock there should be something good up there.

Will be interested to hear your report...

Yep. I camped up in the Rhinogs with my lad several years ago and we bouldered a bit up there. But I'd need a map and regression therapy or hypnosis to find it again. Deffo up for a return trip - the potential is awesome. The walk in less so.

OK Si - you've had two years - besides, it's spring now.  Anything to report?

I'm way too ill at the moment to be wandering around the Rhinogs. Maybe once I've shaken off the creeping malaise I'll go for a wander.

You are too ill?  Ah!  You mean ill.

Yeah man, I picture it:  you're lounging deep wi' some of them there ho's, and there's all these fierce twisted beats in the air (or is that poppers?) 6 jägermeister bongs and you're givin' it all this and givin' it all that and there's this kind of grind-thing going on downstairs - in them pelvises, and the lights.  Yeah bro - you slay 'em good!

Creeping Malaise?  Y'what?  You better not let her catch you calling her that: you'll get a clip round the ear! Nay youth, softly softly.  When you're rested from the whizz, buy her some flowers and chocolates and ask if you can go to the Rhinogs for a while.  Sorted!      Go!
