Nice pics Paul, Did Michael do any of those problems/routes?

Oh, don't like the black bars either I'm afraid

Superb Paul - deliverance 1 is superb with the Michaels shadow on the pebble - really good (who's that handsome chap spotting?!

)
The flash shots, and Nibs on the Storm is superb too... the light was really flat yesterday, and the flash has really picked things out well.. excellent

And why None of Nibs, thought some of those on Captain Hook would come out? Or was there some chump in the way?

Those are really good Paul, lovely shots.
Agree re losing the black lines.

Nice pics - really like the Ulysses one.

Some nice pics from Cofe in the new Boulder Britain feature in the latest Climb mag.

(Let's hope that someone at some time remembers that there are more than two countries in Britain!)

Yep, there are 48 ceremonial counties and 83 metropolitan and non-metropolitan counties in England alone, Wales has 22 and Scotland has 32, whilst Northern Ireland has 26.

(But any bouldering in Scotland or Northern Ireland is refreshing).

Sorry, wasn't meaning to be rude I checked this on the phone and forgot to reply; basically because I've done a shitty job and its hard to distinguish nibs from the rock, I have some choice 'crotch' shots mind you.

Michele floated his way up HTYss even with the finishing undercut being soaking, the problem looks really good and he had some interesting 'spok' beta for holding the arete.

willackers · February 15, 2011, 06:36:58 pm

Excellent pictures! Good work!

Did he float his way up anything else?

Paul B · February 15, 2011, 07:02:08 pm

there wasn't a lot else 'dry' to be honest. I think he's staying with Mason et. al now so we'll see what that mix brings?

One from the glen today...not too bad for a self timer shot with the camera gaffer taped to a broom handle!

SA Chris · February 19, 2011, 09:21:52 pm

Nice Richie, is that the Celtic Jumble or Seana side?

richieb · February 19, 2011, 09:35:24 pm

Cheers. Neither. Its one of the terraces above the road on the Liathach side, opposite seana.

SA Chris · February 21, 2011, 08:36:46 am

More? The glen that keeps on giving! Are you putting together a guide sometime? Will need to come over for a guided tour.

rodma · February 21, 2011, 12:57:26 pm

That looks amazing

Looks like it has been good up there recently, keen to head up sometime soon on a good forecast & keen for a tour if your around. I'll be in touch.

Should probably have included this from the blog...

I'm flying back to Finland for three days and then I'm off to Sheffield for a competition and a couple days on the grit.

Crushing ahoy!

The plantation is going to get spanked again

Who's going to kidnap him and drive him to Lancashire then? Some Godskin stuff he needs to get on.

Strangely I was thinking someone might and try dragging him to the pillbox to do an unrepeated line there ...
