Ascents in Stanage

Quite a proud first 6A!

Really fun

Fun & slabby

Mega classic & fun

Got stuck at the top of the boulder! Very scary down climb for someone who likes the ground very much.

Backlogs. Could not do the top move through the crack and cheated my way on the right side as people were getting impatient to jump on it

Backlogs. Hard beginning

Backlogs. Nice climb for refreshing gear placements

Trying to get my trad face climbing up a bit… was scary at one point

Fun few moves through roof. Well protected. Could do it with a plan I think

Start seemed 22+ to us! Gave up and climbed the arete coz I was getting pulled sideways by the toprope but still hitting the ground on stretch. Gets HVS 5c on ukc which makes more sense.

Looked like a pretty scary lead to me but Raphael didn’t seem too bothered. Slab with shallow breaks…

Actually the Diff ‘Tango Descent’ to the left, to take photos of this one

Fun start, a bit easier after that than expected

pumped out trying to place gear in the crux, sat before it, then sat on it just to be sure it was good before continuing. need to either know the moves, know the gear, or climb with a bit of commitment, and I am 0/3 of these things.

nice, start is fun. though very tame with big cams.
