What Turnip said (nice to meet you in passing the other evening btw).
 + All grades are covered from 4+ up on other blocs, the big one above superbloc is non-tidal so you can climb all day if you wish.  Afternoon and evening low tides are the best for things drying out (struggles to dry in the morning).  When it is wet around the boulders here the ground is literally frictionless.

Cheers both

What's people's thoughts on conditions here early  June,  too hot?

[macca7]

Hi obviously it will depend on the day but should be ok the right side of the face stays in the shade most of the time and you will want it to be fairly warm to dry the dampness.

A glorious evening session in June would be perfect!

Hope that helps.

That looks very atmospheric in the dark! I was up there last weekend with some directions from a few people here, awesome problem! My sequence at the top pretty scrappy though.

Another vlog for those interested. This time it's from the ever popular Tintagel, Cornwall. Also featuring the second ascent of Merlin's Beard (8B)



Enjoy

Boss video again. Love it down at Tintaginal.

There's an approach that avoids the spikey gully. Just walk further along the coastal path to a wooden post and follow a path back on yourself. Possibly a little dodgy as fairly near the cliff edge.

Anyone happen to know if Merlin's Beard into Arthur could be a thing?

Looks like it would be a pretty meaty problem if so.

Thanks, good knowledge about the approach, noted.

Ummm maybe, I don't think it would flow very well, Arthur kind of climbs in from the right.

I swear there must be more blocks on that coastline, from Polzeath to Tintagel, I know Newberry has walked quite a bit, but with the storms there has to be more......

It's really cool up there when it's a clear night. I walked down without a head torch as the moon was so bright. Glad you found it and enjoyed it, probably my favourite problem. The top isn't easy, I dropped it going for the golf ball jug twice...

[monkoffunk]

Yeah one of the best I've done for sure.

It official Tintagel has become that popular you can now walk in naked and not come out with so much as a scratch!

Apparently!

Could be..  Very meaty and would involve reversing a hard to reverse move at the start of Purple Pants to get into the starting position it shares.

Incidentally when Alex did AWOL Right Hand and Merlin's Beard he finished up and rightwards (not direct as Dan does in the vid), apparently there's little difference in difficulty... So meh.  But you could potentially keep going right and finish up the Hurler (which tops out above the rock pool)...

[willackers]

One of the best problems that I've done anywhere, and also the hardest thing that I've done in a long time. Feeling good, heavy, but good 

 

[rodma]

That looks an awesome problem 

[monkoffunk]

Yeah brilliant. Where is it?

[willackers]

It's in the Perth Hills, Western Australia. WA isn't known for its good climbing, but there are a few gems to be found, it just takes a bit of effort to find things.

Tomtom, a quality post.
Thanks for making me laugh.

Cooling off a bit now then?

Welcome to the Meds Cave. A new bouldering destination hidden in the hills behind Cheddar Gorge. Here are two prescriptions with more to follow. As with any videos involving the now exiled Three Nine, user discretion advised if at a place of work or operating heavy machinery.

[monkoffunk]

Good little boulder that one. Was there a week ago Sunday. Didn't think of your go again right hand to higher part of crack and crossed over into it with a high left foot, quite spicy either way!

The question marked hold out is a dish you slap out to with your left hand (pressing from from the second part of the crack), then you yard to the top direct for a burly 7B.
