Went to Robin Hood Stride on Sunday, conditions were pretty poor, but probably the best in the Peaks!!
Did most the routes on the boulder by itself at the back, including both sides of a classic chipped arete (Font5, 6b) and the tenuous slab next to it Font7a. Then went to Cratcliffe to play about on the slabs with no hands! A good laugh!
Monday i went back to the Stride to try I Can't Remember the name!! E5 6b on a top rope, did all the moves but the last, but it was in rubbish condition and there was better stuff to try. So went over to the 7a slab i did yesterday as Ben wanted to try that. Much better condition!! I did that again and the nice arete. Then we went over to Razor Roof Font6c (+ I think!). Brilliant little problem on sharp crimps with a dyno for the top. Ben got it static! Good effort! Then i tried the Font7a+ link up into it, which i should have got - i fell off the last (easier) moves :( next time, its worth going back to!)
We then headed over to T-Crack Font7b which i got a lot a lot further on than i have previously. Might have that one this winter...
