Begehungen in Cardiff and Newport crags

Second try, low end 7A/V6 but so nice

Second try

First 7B+ boulder - proper fight

Got reasonably close. Got to work one move, then will go.

Peeled off the last move going to the jug. One move off this V8. Am I a boulderer yet?

A lot of blood sacrificed. Amazing problem if maybe a bit soft

Forth go, been bouldeering more than sport climbing lately… where are the sport climbers? 🥲

first try but had done mushroom roof before

First route in Wales probably turned into a first ascent 😂 Link up between two routes, traversing leftwards.

Very cool route as long as you can keep your cool

Went wrong way first time into the 6c+ at the left.

mega

Massive fall from the traverse, ripping gear and nearly decking. Core shot rope.

good intro to ogmore

sorry route in ogmore SE wales

wild

Climb it after 5 years. It felt easy.

Ok route.

Quite wet.

Interesting route with lots of options.

Awkward at the beginning. Stay in the route, going left will only make it harder. At 3/4 route it is awkward again. Not an easy route for short people. More like 6a+.

I enjoyed more this time with better technique.

Took the direct line, nearly 6c.

Weird squeezed route. If you stick to the arete/pillar is significantly harder than 6a. If you use handholds and footholds from the right it feels like you are cheating.

Warm up

Sticked to the crag or left. More like a 6c.
