A Day At Craig Pant Ifan - 7th April

Approaching the Barbarian 2nd overlap

The weather asked for a change and so we moved to Tremadog to find climbing in the sun, warm and dry. We started on the excellent Barbarian (E1 5b) at Craig Pant Ifan.


I thought this would be a possible rest position! - it turned out not to be - but I did later manage to find 2 knee jams. This wasn't quite as good as Lena's body jam - that gave her a resting hands free position to look over the overlap!

Done

The final pitch

Lena then moved onto Scratch (VS 4b)

The next day (8th April) we stayed at Tremadog but went to Craig Bwich y Moch and Striptease (VS 5a). The guidebook suggests that you swarm up the first pitch - I didn't do that but more 'enjoyed' it... Lena took us to the top with the second pitch - and brought us to the end of our first week of climbing.

For the next week (9th to 13th April) I'll be taking Catrin and Tanya climbing - unfortunately Monday is heavy rain!
