Routes
Imperfect, Blacknor South, 3
Was more difficult than I remembered from 2 weeks before, and than it looked. But still a nice warm-up climb. Remembered to thread rope through both bolts at the top this time!
Mark and Steve top roped it, enjoying the climb as they found it difficult to understand how I explained rethreading the top through the bolts.
Fallen Slab, Blacknor South, 3
Decided to sit at the top and help Mark and Steve to suss out the rethreading of the rope. Both climbed it twice much to the frustration of the few other climbers who arrived after us.
Six Good Biceps, Blacknor South, 4
Lead the route which was pretty pumpy as the name suggestes. The slight overhang was tough until I move my feet up and found the holds. The sun came out in the middle of the climb and boy was it hot. Nice development lead.
Mark and Steve both top roped it and enjoyed the climb.
