A strangely similar shot to the last, but this time over at Raven Tor. I'm in the middle of reviewing the new Mountain Equipment Rock Climbing Range for UKC - hence the same clothing throughout!

Blue Scar, perhaps one of the most underrated crags in Yorkshire? Probably, but not without reason - the routes are hard and the access is awkward. Keen to get back there next year to have a bit of a clean up. You know it's going to be adventurous when there's a dead seal at the base of the zawn... Originally we'd abbed into Deep Zawn for Antiworlds, the classic Littlejohn E5, but upon arrival it all turned out to be wet. As such, we 'escaped' up Quatermass, another Littlejohn classic, which in its state of wetness + ming felt more like E5 than E2 anyway. Not one I'll be forgetting anytime soon (for better or worse)! Been a few weeks since I got back from Lundy, but haven't got round to posting any pictures yet. Here's one of @madeleine_cope on Wild Heart, an unsung gem on the Diamond. Such a good crag... An unlikely adventure en-route to Lundy last week, stopping off at the Avon Gorge. Penny and I did Yellow Edge, which was more Gogarth than a lot of Gogarth - wild!! Most random of all was topping out to ice creams and - of all things - Massive Attack doing a sound check for their gig the following night. Arms Race (pictured) was also good, but significantly more conventional!
