An Evening At Three Cliffs




It was meant to be an ordinary evening of climbing down at Three Cliffs. I went with Ed to do Arch Slab and Under Milk Wood. Ed can be seen in the photo breezing Arch Slab.
When we got to the beach, we realised we had to share it initially with this heard of cows. They were looking for somewhere to chill out and sokething to drink. I think they discovered that the water was not fresh but I wanted to tell them that the beach would be under the tide in 2 hours..
That was enough for one night but then we heard a plane (normal), which then landed on the beach (not normal). A passenger got out and the plane, obviously aware of the tide timetable, made a hasty take off into the setting sun.. Wow.

6th Sept, BMC Gower Climb Festival

On Sunday the Gower Climb Festival still had lots of climbers about - including lots of visitors from North Wales - sometimes we actually have less rain than North Wales - but this summer it seems to be raining everywhere.

Today I was with Ed Abbley, knocking off some VS routes for his MIA. Above he can be seen in good form on the classic Osiris ***. Thankfully he climbed through the spots of rain and found a way round that massive roof ! An awesome route - only one of many we have on Gower obviously :)
