Was out today with Lakey again we climbed, well he climbed Weaver and Snake, owing to the fact I have done these routes many times before and he hadn’t. So seemed selfish to blow his onsights.
Weaver is perhaps one of the best E2s around and is a big pitch that goes direct up from the first stance on Vector. It is steep and interesting climb whose crux is that damn groove at the top of Vector. I challenge anyone to find it easy, its seems to get harder every time I climb it.
After that I sent Si up Snake a hidden gem that is the easiest if somewhat intimidating way to get onto the vector headwall, where you traverse past Vois and into the top of cream in an absolutely mindblowing position.
We ran into Robin, Sheila and another climber on Grim Wall, great to catch up as I hadn’t really seen them since Porth Ysgo and they were as upbeat as ever. Although it is hard not to be in this weather.
I took some topos for the far end of Tremadog and will add them to the North Wales Rock App tonight. We did have 745 route in the database, so will be getting close to the 800 mark soon.
Off out tomorrow, we shall have to see what happens as to where we go although I fancy some Gogarth action!
