Welcome to North Wales winter and the finest and most upto date winter conditions blog. Thanks go to Mountain Equipment and DMM for their long term support of the Welsh Winter Scene. Saturday, 30 March 2013. Briefly Back and West Face Tryfan News. My own climbing has been a real mixed bag, getting in new routes, failing on new routes, ticking some classics, failing on winter ascents of rock routes and even failing on the odd classic. Found on a more sustained route it would be at least hard V, but it is ...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Thursday, 18 August 2011. So today was my first day off since last Thursday. Been working my arse off, but it will all be worth it when i get a van! After last Thursday being a wash out and only managing an indoor session i really keen to get out and get on some real rock. I had arranged with Helen to take her over to North Wales to go do some multi-pitch as she had never done any before. Next up on the list was Skylon a HS but it looked nice and clea...

Welcome to North Wales winter and the finest and most upto date winter conditions blog. Thanks go to Mountain Equipment and DMM for their long term support of the Welsh Winter Scene. Saturday, 1 March 2014. Who would have thought it! And is it frozen in the Cwm? After so much action over recent years, the pay back has certainly come this year. One extreme to the other. Mind you, its only climbing after all, with so many people having been really affected by the weather in view of floods etc. Simple templ...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 1 September 2014. On the blog again. So seems like reading my last post when I promised I would be posting more i must have been lying. What have a been doing? Well, turns out to be an awful lot. After the winter and getting to this level i knew that the focus would have to shift this year and more time spent in the hills on big mountain crags and sea cliffs getting some finalising routes in before i went for MIA training which i finally compl...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Tuesday, 28 October 2014. Fontainehelm - Font in a ball bag. In February 2014 7 of us headed out to Font for a week to stay at The House. For Andy's stag do. We had such a laugh, pretty poor conditions as it was humid but we still climbed a few problems. I apologise for the poor selection of problems but for some reason these were the only clips i was left with. 3 x 8 sec straight arm 30 degree sloper (1.10 min rest between each). 3 x 8 sec straight a...
