Finally ticked Tremelo on Saturday - after months of being thwarted by seepage so selective that I once suspected a deliberate evil was at work. 

Unfortunately though it looks like I might be the last person to have done the route as a 7c.  On Sunday, someone pulled a jug from the route - reportedly making the pre-crux section much more sustained.....   

Nice one moose

Look on the bright side, someone has just pushed your tick up to 7c+

Just had a fantastic day bouldering at Horsetooth with Blunk.
15-20 degrees in bright sunshine, cold perfect sandstone and I got to try and see some of the classic John Gill creations. Tired and happy. What it's all about

  as f*ck!

Despite failing to achieve any of the goals I set myself before this font trip,
I am nevertheless calling it a huge success because I saw - in the flesh - Fred Nicole!

I think my year has been made

I went climbing today for the first time in nearly 6 weeks, since the ill fated St Bees epic touching the void\clucthing the roids horror trip. Fantastic conditions at the Bowderstone and foot and heel felt fine. Winner.

I visited Trowbarrow for the first time on Saturday and bagged myself 'Vitruvian Man' in half a dozen goes.
My mate caught the ascent on his camera:

I have got funding for another PhD student.  A Basque university (I thought they had no money) is paying for one of their lecturers to spend 4 years with us looking into neck pain and spinal manipulation.

I also found out today that the student used to climb with Patxi Usobiaga*! 



























*When they were about 12 years old... Paxti was a beast even then apparently.

I climb with Micky Page. I climbed with him the night before last. I'm still shit

[andy popp]

I climb with Micky Page. I climbed with him the night before last. I'm still shit

But Micky isn't. Maybe we should all climb with Dense?

[tomtom]

I've not climbed with Micky Page or Paxti - and I'm shitter than Dense..

[SA Chris]

fear not, I'm shitter than thee.

[tomtom]

fear not, I'm shitter than thee.

Ah, now have you not climbed with Andy Popp as well?
I have, so if you have not climbed with Paxti, Micky and Andy then that makes perfect sense!

According to my first edition of Paul Williams Snowdonia - as recently dug out of my brother's attic - I climbed with Johnny and Sean Myles.

I'm shitter than all of you in everything except the Punters Who Have Climbed With Wads league.

[erm, sam]

First after work session of the year and I spent it snowballing Archangel (only up to the break), Don, White Wand, WW other side and Ulysses. Totally brilliant evening. YYFY. I only wish my old running dog Galpinos could have joined me, but understandably he was a little busy..

After years of training,failing,injuries,and generally feeling like I was banging my head against a brick wall,I finally bagged my first proper 7C boulder. Chuffed as mintballs;YYFY!!!

Congrats, you are climbing strong! I had the same experience on the same day as you, coincidentally. I line I had tried for years with no real hope of ever completing it, sometimes all the stars line up and the unthinkable just happens.

My eldest son has left teen age morosidy, and has got a self pass to the Works... And fallen in love with bouldering.. So damn choked he's found a new path in life.. All part of having kids... But the not so little man is fired up and keen as... Get IN.

[fatdoc]

I know I've spelt the the not so morose thing wrong... Frankly I don't care!!!

[Sasquatch]

After 9 months and who knows how many hours, I've finally finished my guidebook!!!!! 6-8 weeks for printing and shipping, but it's done!

So stoked to get to climb again and get out of the darkness that is guidebook writing....
