Finishing up tonight's indoor session with a low-level traverse, and I found a "Hero" sized mini Double Decker hidden in a hold!! #Climbing #IndoorClimbing #CragSwag

Nearing the end of our Spanish climbing trip. This was from yesterday, "Three Sixty", a 120m multipitch at Coral East not far from El Chorro. (So-called because of the 360° view that you're rewarded with from the summit ridgeline, and there's a fun abseil off the back!) This is my first experience of sport climbing, and it's been a lot of fun. I think I probably still prefer British Trad, but you can't argue with the weather! #Climbing #SportClimbing #ElChorro #Spain

Another view from Wolf Crag #Northumberland on Wednesday afternoon. The descent route at this end of the crag is down an enclosed gully that's capped by this boulder. We racked-up and left the rest of our gear at the top; seemed easier! It's a small crag, and this lichenous rock is indicative, but there are some nice routes, albeit rather short ones. #Climbing #TradClimbing #Photography

We were lucky with the Sunday afternoon weather at Kyloe Crag. Four leads, including three on-sights, one of them a VS... which for me is good! Seconded a couple more, including a repeat of an E1, and still thought it was nuts!! #Climbing #TradClimbing #Northumberland

A couple more from Peel Crag #Northumberland last night. A chilly but fun evening of #Climbing and trying out a second-hand camera... a Sony ZV-E10 with a 20mm Viltrox f2.8 prime. Happy with it so far, and I think it's going to better than using my GoPro as a camera. #Photography #TradClimbing

The weather stayed (somewhat!!) like this! Peel Crag, #Northumberland . #TradClimbing #Climbing

Added a couple of routes to my East Woodburn repertoire last night including a Hard Severe up Green Slab Arete... a tricky start, but reasonable protection and becomes easier. #Northumberland #TradClimbing #Climbing #Photography

Deception Crack, a classic 2* Hard Severe at Kyloe Out. Great conditions last night, and breezy enough to keep the midge at bay until almost 9pm. For #Northumberland sandbag aficionados, let me recommend Fakir's Slab. VDiff?!! They must be mad!! Fun route, afterwards, but approach it as you would a poorly protected and slopey Severe. #Climbing #RockClimbing #TradClimbing

Very pleasant afternoon and evening at Crag Lough, with a brief jaunt up Sunset at Peel Crag on the way back to the car park... it had to be done! And midge-free, surprisingly!! My first time leading Hadrian's Buttress too; a classic 3-star Severe towards the end of Crag Lough. Great route! 🧗 #Northumberland #Climbing #TradClimbing
