New routes

With Spring we are back on the rock
We have done a few new routes

At Wye Creek

Harold's wall
A link from Chimney sweep 16 to the top of Fata morgana 15, making a 2 pitch adventure. (Chimney sweep is dirty on the bottom half!)

Main Wall
A new route Called Twelve 17 that starts on the first 4 bolts of Almi then another 9 of it's own - GREAT wee route. **

Up South Wye

Gauntlet (Mixed). On the North side
We finally finished the route we backed off last summer . Just as well we did rapping in the Loose rocks that turned us back ground up, fell like a deck of cards with just a wee nudge. Hence the name. We did 2 pitches of 17, there is a possible 3rd pitch But it would be mid 20's, and we're not up to it with Aaron's injury and my lack of ability.





Big mama crack 16. I thought this looked awesome but it was only OK. Run out gear! 1 bolt + trad


We are starting a new line as well which will be the best of the 3 from the quick look we've had so far. It will be mixed too



Check out the new routes book in the Bivvy for more details!
