A few shots from the rather fun Tricam workshop day with Rise and Summit at Wintours Leap on Saturday. Leads on Swallow's Nest (VS 4c) and African Killer Bee (VS 4c) including placing some of said (rather versatile as it turns out) pointy devices. Not shown; the faceful of hail I took 3/4 of the way up Swallow's Next - mostly, I suspect, because Kev was rather more concerned for my safety on the suddenly very slimy and rather exciting upper section than taking pics 🤣 Thanks for that, Kev! Also nice to have climbing pics that don't feature my backside!

Well, I kinda assumed Plump Hill was soft, what with it being very slabby and all, but Shorn Cliff is definitely "proper" trad routes, so either the grades are soft there too, or I'm getting better; this VS 4b actually felt not too bad, and I'm even placing slightly less gear (probably still too much, though....)

So, having finished with the Kalymnos videos, back in the UK I managed to get a bit of trad action in. This was from the rather nice Shorn Cliff Great Central Cave area. Bit of a trek in, but fantastic rock!

Another route from Wyndcliff last weekend with Shan (not shown: Shan's whip off the top!). Stamina aside, it gives me hope that I haven't completely forgotten how to climb on rock - which is a relief with my upcoming climbing trip!

Between work, finding a free partner and the lovely, changeable, British weather, Sunday was my first day on rock this year... Also Shan's intro to polished British rock and sketchy bolting after the friendly bolting and grippy limestone of Kalymnos 🤣
Great day out and nice prep for the return to sun.
