I had a great day, good vibes, great weather, and plenty of bold, inspirational leads to watch! I just checked out the video of Julian now --- not sure whether that falls into the category of bouldering or free soloing... very impressive!
I saw Al attempt a repeat on Scottish Reign, including gear popping out --- that would have to be my pick for the day I think, even though I missed seeing the complete ascent.
Anyways I did a few climbs in the teens, comtemplated leading Braveheart but after doing it on top rope I'd lost my confidence, as well as some skin and blood :-) It's all good though, and I am certainly developing a taste (perhaps a fetish?) for granite this year.
Thanks to all who helped organise the day!
Cheers, V.
PS. Chris N: I forgot to get your email address --- could you send it to me please?
