Nibile - no mention of watching the Motogp on Sunday good race!
I think it’s time to take a leaf out of Nibs’ book...
Coops - that’s a great video. The setting of some of those rocks looks great. Must have been awesome to go explore them.
Loved the one 2:50 or so where you nearly bailed from don’t-really-want-to-drop height.
The dogs what was going on there? Chased by wild ones?
F: campussing, close to 1-4-7, managed 1-5-7 quite comfortably though, not sure if this is easier?

Haha cheers Murph, yeah it's a great "off the beaten track" destination.

Yeah that was a good one, tough for the short - I had to do double the number of moves as my matesQuote from: Murph on March 13, 2019, 01:43:40 pmThe dogs what was going on there? Chased by wild ones?The shepherds would herd their sheep up round the boulders, I topped out and walked straight into 3 massive dogs which chased me back up the boulder...

Strong stuff either way.
S - escaped terrible weather in Yorkshire to go to Hepburn. Repeated Rheumatology 2nd go, then Another Flake. Briefly dropped a rope down Prep H and got a feel for the holds but others I was with were keen for Trivial Pursuit so tried that and got close but no cigar. It was absolutely freezing in the wind so went down to try Daze of the Weak and did it 4th go having fully puntered the top on my 3rd. Lovely day, worth the 15hrs door to door.
I guess that must have been you I met at A Northern Soul/Prep H Bradders? Thanks again for sticking your pads under A Northern Soul and your words of encouragement. I'd wanted to do it for years, total class. Good work on Daze of the Weak.

The bouldering looks great but I’m interested in what the place is like - how was travel there etc...? What was the vibe of the place. never know you might get yerself a ukc article :D
James - a Tsunami replica would be amazing. Also contenders are dancing fish and king of lambs and something on Sean’s. But Tsunami is what I always had in mind.
Thanks James. Something to aspire to. It’s light years ahead of where I am at the moment but that’s the point. Much appreciated.
Just keep chipping away.
