After the skin-full last night we got up late... Too late to do anything big, so we decided to head out to the coast so I could take Pete up some sunny rock (he was still feeling tired after yesterdays efforts and booze!). We drove out to Jack Scout Crag...
After baking on Burbage on Saturday we opted to seek out some shade on Sunday. Shining Clough sits high on the northern edge of Bleaklow about an hours walk...
The forecast was for hot and the crowds were on their way. We decided to head the other way. We drove down to Wilton Quarry and watched hundreds of cars queuing on the north bound M6...
We intended to go to Sandbed Ghyll Crag tonight - the approach is described in the guidebook as "painfully steep but mercifully short (15 minutes)"...
A slight digression from our normal theme but I thought your readers might like these shots of the Tall Ships in the Mersey yesterday...
A dry weekend at last saw Paul and the refugees from a wet week in the Lakes heading for Secret Stanage...
After a lot of work, the CC finally opened its first hut in the Lakes...
Limestone (especially polished limestone) can make for tricky gymnastic climbing, but it can also be great fun... Twistleton Scar offers a wide range of grades, a short approach and a lovely outlook up and down Ribblesdale...
The CC hut opening wasn't the only unusual event in Borrowdale this weekend...
