Charlie was out with me at the Pass of Ballater for a somewhat cooler and damper day than we'd hoped for. Nonetheless we got a lot of climbing done. It was Charlie's first day on rock but that didn't stop him from pushing himself!
Of the many popular routes we climbed Original Route (VS 5a**) and Lucky Strike (VS 4c***) are in the list. Charlie even got two leads in on a VDiff and Severe; Jumble Block Crack and Ping Pong respectively.
In between climbs we had a chat and look at gear placement and personal abseils. Lots of climbing and three abseils later we headed for home (and Charlie for a well deserved pint I would think!!!).
I should be out again later this week if the weather stays fine; such is the case increasingly at this time of the year unfortunately.
