Well today went according to plan. A plan so cunning that it was hatched on thursday, when Llion had to decide a day to climb, so we skip saturday and the ming fest, and decided on Sunday. When a small team of us headed to Pant Ifan at tremadog. The sun was out and all look amazing at the crag.
Furst route was Barbarian, I forgot how tough the top groove is coming out of teh main roof, fortunately I had Llion on teh sharp end there, and he got a little pumped trying to work it out. I did manage to drop a quickdraw with a wire on it and forgot to look for it on the abseil down. If you find it, then please keep it, if for nothing else as to punish me for my stupidity.
We then nipped up Itch, via the variation straight over the roof on teh seocnd pitch, and by follow Scratch to get to the second pitch. Mainly because I hate that first pitch, it always seems a bit goey. After that we ran up Scratch Arete. The sun was starting to fizzle out, and the cold wind that had been bothering us all day seem to be winning. So Llion and I managed to leave our ropes for Katie and Sarah to coil, and get down to the Eric’s Cafe before it shut, for a nice frothy coffee.
Awesome day, hopefully warmer tomorrow?!
Be warned that the infamous Tremadog Slippy feet is out in force at the moment.
