Loch Leven, Scotland
Loch Leven Paddleboarding
It was Joe's turn to lead the activities. We went for a long paddleboard across Loch Leven to visit the pink "maerl" coral, stopping off on famous Eilean Munde to explore the hidden graves.
Coire an t-Sneachda, Aviemore
The Magic Crack
Jumped onto the famous Magic Crack with Will & Joe. Brutal finger work, would have preferred to take axes. Thankfully Will took the crux pitch.
Ben Nevis, Fort William
Misty Tower Ridge
Joe and I were aiming for North-East Buttress, but the heavy clag made finding the start and best way up pretty tricky. Instead we opted for Tower Ridge in the hope that I'd recognise it from the winter.
The route finding is super obvious (despite the best efforts of Gary Latter to confuse things) and we moved together the whole way. Finished up round CMD arete - a long way for Joe's first big Scottish day!
Buachaille Etive Mòr, Ballachulish
Curved Ridge
Warm up day in Scotland with Joe on the Buachaille. Easy scrambling on the route, the hardest part was the (incorrect) steep slabs on the approach!
Tryfan, Snowdonia
Tryfan with Joe
Day 2 out with Joe, and this time a big mountain ridgeline on the east face of Tryfan. We helped haul the couple behind us up the “infamous yellow slab”. Not bad for 73 years old!
