We hoped for more of the amazing weather today, but alas, just as we turned into the Duddon Valley it started to rain. But there was no way that we weren't going to climb after the long drive to get there!
Having recently advanced to leading rock climbs, I think Dave enjoyed our visit to Black Crag to tick the ultra classic Troutdale Pinnacle.
Wednesday and Friday this week saw Ian helping out Sean and Caroline at their Expedition Medicine course held in Keswick.
Not the fattest Sloe berries, but it has been a very dry summer.
Laetitia, Mum, Wesley (Mum’s dog), and I enjoyed a cruise on Windermere in the brilliant late summer sunshine today. It would have been a great day for one last trip to Scafell or the like, but actually seeing the Lakes from a lake is well worthwhile too. Something we don’t do too often… We stopped …
A lazy day saw us at our local beach. The 3 scoops of famous Twentyman's ice cream was well worth the 5 mile walk....
Saturday saw us head up to Sergeant Crag Slabs for a bit of pre-Kalymnos practice.
I'm not sure if the Staveley guys were the best. If they weren't, they were only narrowly beaten by the guys from Luton (pictured above). Either way the procession through the streets of Kendal were an amazing flash of colour and sound!
Yes, the main picture is a fake! Well, in that it wasn't taken today. However, the picture right was taken just after the rain stopped. I'm not sure it shows the wet rock clearly, but it was running!
