So far this trip I’ve been taking things easy with my climbing due to my previous shoulder injury trying to climb but not to re-injure or make anything worse. Finally with my shoulder remaining stable I decided it time to stop Jason eating all the cake and get on the cake point ladder. In our latest (of many) guide books I found a nice looking crag with lots of routes that suited my style of climbing. A near vertical wall with crimpy edges, good bolting and a nice 6b+ route to get me started. The route was the hardest climb I’d attempted all holiday so it was a pleasant surprise that after working the moves on the route a couple of time I managed to lead it on the first redpoint attempt. With my first cake points on the board I also had enough left in my arms to take a look at a 6c project on the same wall. This one is noticeably harder but perhaps on my next visit I can add some more cake points to my score.
[Not sure what Jason is looking at!]
