First trad and multi pitch for probably 6 months. It's been raining for 5 months so the wall was greasy. We took a chance, went and had a look, we climbed a route we knew and were happy on. It started to rain as I started the 3rd pitch, so I didn't overdo it with the gear, and raced up. Didn't bother checking the guide book for the final pitch, hence finishing on the VS pitch. Good day out, I was unfamiliar with my rack, and everything took for ever. Fantastic day, finishing with a San Miguel in the rising Sun.
Area :The Wye Valley, Monmouth, Gloucestershire and The Malverns
Includes Symonds Yat, Wintour's Leap, Shorn Cliff, Wynd Cliff, Windcliff Quarry and many other smaller crags.
