	7a ~7a+	★★ The Holy Hand Grenade	Sport		Daniel Mateos
Finally able to unlock the crux moves in TR, nails though. Perhaps next trip?
	6b	★★ European Flavour	Sport	★★ Very Good	Daniel Mateos
Finally took my revenge from the whipper 2 year ago and sent it. The initial boulder problem is getting more and more polished, perhaps V3/V3+? Retroflash

Stanage Popular BAW's Crawl
	HVS 5a	★★ B.A.W.'S Crawl	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good	Adam Deverix
The strangest climb I have ever done. Pull hard and get a heel high, shuffle your whole body in using an undercling, rotate 180 degrees in a horizontal squeeze, crawl out and finish up the face!

Hmm, not sure how to get into the big left hand flake/crack. Bouldery to the flake, then sustained to finish. Dogged to get the draws on, then one TR attempt.

Angus Legaston Quarry Forbidden Buttress
	7a+	★★★ Spandex Ballet	Sport 15m	★★★ Classic	alonsoATCO
Finally went today on first go after trying it 4-5 times the previous summer. At 5'6, the crux feels very low percentage. Good moves throughout.
Sat 28th May 2022 - Llanberis Valley Area
Clogwyn Du'r Arddu West Buttress
	HVS 5a	★★ Great - Bow Combination	Trad	★★ Very Good	Daniel Mateos
Led all 5 pitches. P1 traverse is pretty scary (1st couple of moves). P3 traverse is damn scary, did it low (hard way). The route is pretty intense and exposed (all but 1 belay stations are hanging) not recommended for the faint-hearted. Thanks god we had good weather, always in the shade though, got really cold.

Steep and pumpy, just amazing climbing.

Bailed out of doing Windjammer and finished up this instead.
Sat 28th May 2022 - Burbage Valley
Burbage North Ash Tree Wall
	E2 5c	Artificial Stimulant - with rew	Trad 12m		Michelle C
Decided I didn't need to do this on lead, given the lack of protection through the crux moves.
Fri 27th May 2022 - Shropshire
Llanymynech Quarry Grid Iron Wall

	6C+	★★ Gettin' the Chop	Boulder		Ollie Price
Took two attempts as my fingers were ice cold - much easier on second attempt
	6C	★ Chip Shop Slapper	Boulder		Ollie Price
3 move wonder, top out is the crux
	7B	★★ Beef Growler	Boulder		Ollie Price
Tricky start and some weird moves to get out to the sloper rail - need to work on keeping the heel on start hold

Ok but wouldn’t recommend
	6b	★★ John’s Route - with Breanna Slattery	Sport 18m	★★ Very Good	Hywel Rowlands
Stick left of the cave to avoid the bird poo. Would be a classic if not for the poo.
	6a+	★ First Handout - with Breanna Slattery	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good	Hywel Rowlands
Definitely the better of the two 6a+ climbs here
	6c	★★ Par 3 - with Breanna Slattery	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good	Hywel Rowlands
Amazing climbing, bit of sand in one spot but quite clean.

Starting left sidepull/sloper is pretty rubbish. Probably requires much cooler conditions for friction!

	6c+	Humpty Dumpty	Sport 35m		Daniel Mateos
really tricky end, sensational route
	7a	Jack the Smuggler	Sport 17m		Daniel Mateos
Small sweaty crimps, quite at the span limit for a short climber. Hated it, didn't bother to finish it.

Easy to fall before the gear. The crux is protected, however it's easy to fall before the gear. Actually quite descent moves. Techy E2.

	E1 5b	★★ Zombogies	Trad 30m		Daniel Mateos

Really nice flowy moves
	6A	★★★ Pebble Arete - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Boulder 4m		Tom Bes
Oooo what a joy. Like crescent arete but a bit less high, scary, and a better landing. The final move off a bad smear was my crux. Exciting Tom Bes
	4	★★ Pebble Face - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Boulder 5m	★ Good	Tom Bes
Cool first move then a bit plain
Thu 21st Apr 2022 - Stanage

Loved it. Beautiful flowing rock
	V2	★★ The Lone Slab - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Boulder	★ Good	Tom Bes
Much harder than lone scoop and less of a quality line maybe?
	6B	★★ Steep Side (Sit Start) - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Boulder 3m	★★★ Classic	Tom Bes
Very nice easy moves
	V2	★★ Lone Scoop - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Boulder	★★★ Classic	Tom Bes

Another fun high ish introduction to stanage bouldering

Plantation Boulders Crescent Arete Area
	5C	★★★ Crescent Arete	Boulder 7m	★★ Very Good	Tom Bes
got higher and higher into the crux but just couldnt commit to matching on the arete on those terrible smears. too high, too slopey a landing for me. first shutdown of the trip, but not the last

Stanage Plantation Unconquerables to Namenlos Area The Unconquerables
	E1 5b E1 5b	★★★ The Left Unconquerable - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 17m		Tom Bes
in my effort to understand british grading i went to a climbing gym. onsighted multiple 6c+ on lead. oh great, i should be ok to do an e1 classic then. of course not. took 20 million takes on this route, inching up by placing a piece of gear every 2 feet or so on the crux where the jams run out and the layback starts. first half was great jamming however. After floundering up for 45mins, Old mate stanage cave seconded up clean in about 10 seconds. which gave him thje confidence to attempt a lead on quietus.
	HVS 5a HVS 5a	★★★ The Right Unconquerable - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 17m		Tom Bes
Took one rest after floundering around on the holdless topout mantle. should of just gone a foot to the left and would of got it clean. alas. quite a sustained route. Was very cool to see an old school stone chock buried in the crack about two thirds of the way up. some climbing history on a historic route.
Thu 21st Apr 2022 - Stanage
Stanage Plantation Wall End Slab
	VS 5a VS 5a	★★★ Wall End Slab - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 22m	★★★ Classic	Tom Bes
definitely a spicy number for the grade. only found 3 places for gear the whole route. And the last piece was a #1 cam almost completely filling a vital pocket that provide the only foothold to reach the arete. Was able to push it to the side and sneak a toe in. i guess this is grit stone! fairly insecure all the way. a great last climb of the trip when i had shredded tips but wanted one last hurrah.
Thu 21st Apr 2022 - Stanage
Stanage North High Neb High Neb Buttress
	VS 4c VS 4c	★★ Inaccessible Crack - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 16m		Tom Bes
the final big layback moves were great. felt fairly burly
	E2 5c E2 5c	★★★ Quietus - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 14m		Tom Bes
jon the cowboy cave decided to make this his first every trad lead after seconding some e1's without difficulty. set up an anchor for him at the top, and off he went. He immediately got into groundfall territory by doing a massive run out above his first peice until I told him to place something. Then I told him to back it up cause if it pops he is dead. Then he set off again, climbed past another placement opportunity on a big run out into the roof. I suggested he might want to place another piece, but he was too pumped to place anything and couldn't reverse the move into the roof he had just done. So he took his first Trad whip. Thankfully the pieces held fine. But he had left a cam half way up the roof so we had some fun getting it out. Then he bailed onto an easier route out right. What a ride. He had a good time though. so we did what i imagine is a fairly popular variation; the start of quietus into Norse corner climb.
	VS 4c VS 4c	★★★ High Neb Buttress - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 20m	★★★ Classic	Tom Bes
greeeeaaat trad slabbing. worth the long walk
	HS 5a HS 5a	★★ Tango Buttress - with jon 'ole mate stan age' cave	Trad 14m	★★★ Classic	Tom Bes
A bit more technical and run out than high neb. very good

Curbar Field Boulders The Ultimate Gritstone Experience
	6B+	The Ultimate Gritstone Experience Stand - with rew	Boulder		Michelle C
Fridge hugging goodness. Top-out was definitely tricky, might have used an alpine knee... now to work out the sit start!

Little Quarry
	5+	Hob Nob Wall - with rew	Boulder		Michelle C
Felt like more than 5+ but could be due to the reachy start, felt like I had to pull up on some bad crimps to rearrange my feet. Would be easier with more height?
	4	Chimney Crack - with rew	Boulder		Michelle C
The problem ate some of my jacket. I was unable to avenge the loss.

	6c	★★ Black Adder — 3 attempts	Sport 8m, 4	★★ Very Good	Daniel Mateos
Really fun route, nails bouldery crux, needs plenty of power. Usually quite wet up to mid route. Essential to work the crux, fell several times on red point, hopefully next time. Barnacles in the 1st third makes it miss the 3 stars (lost my fingertips)

	6C	The Ultimate Gritstone Experience - with rew	Boulder		Michelle C
Trying to do it from a stand (at around 6B/6B+) and fell off trying to top out three times! Looking at my grazed hands, arms and knees, I think I now know what they mean by "The Ultimate Gritstone Experience"! 😅
