The coastguards have had a busy year this year!
•
I hope everyone injured is making a full recovery and I hope that anyone who made some silly mistakes and has needed rescuing has learnt a few new skills.
•
If you still feel like you might need a little help out on the rock; learning how to strip routes(don't drop the rope!), finding crag descent paths, general climbing knowledge please! please! contact some of the great instructors we have locally!

I had to share this image that my good friend Angus took. We bumped into him and Seb (not literally, luckily!) at Blacknor at the weekend. Can you see me sketching out on a chossy 6c with probably less than 20% concentration the other 80% wondering if a paraglider was going to come crashing in to me. Those boys are incredibly good at flying!

I never bothered even looking at 'Pandemonium' 7c+

I never bothered even looking at 'Pandemonium' 7c+ at Cheyne as from the floor the rock doesn't look great, even a little chossy. One time when I was down there with Tom working 'Illusions' (again!) @jonbutters turned up with @howdoyoupronouncethat and was raving about it. I shot up a rope Jon had kindly put up to grab some photos and on closer inspection the rock is amazing! What looks like choss from low is actually a series of shattered flowstone edges and pockets which leads you through a tough 7a+ to a good rest and then a v6?v7? (V4, V5 strongman @phil.belcher says)to the top. Only had the one go on it so far but am psyched to get it cleaned up!

This is a photo of Jon working it a couple of months ago. A huge congratulations to him for winning the 2019 @marmot photography award for sport climbing! Go and check his work out @jonbutters

The day we went down to get this photo of @tom__li

The day we went down to get this photo of @tom__livingstone on 'The Roaring Boys' E6 6b at the Boulder Ruckle there was a young girl working the moves on 'Lean Machine' E5 6a. It's always impressive seeing anyone climbing that hard but when they are 12 years old you can't help but be amazed. Anyway, she cleaned that up in little time and effort so she decided to try something harder. So she got on 'The Roaring Boys' and then cleaned that up in no time. Check out the interview on @ukclimbing with Hannah Toward, she is one to keep an eye on for sure!

We had an amazing time in Scotland but its a shame

We had an amazing time in Scotland but its a shame we couldn't get a few more routes in. Dam midges!

This is a route which I was wanting to solo on a beach called 'Sandwood'. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe it is the most remote beach in the UK with a 4.5 mile in. It's beautiful! I found this route via a forum and decided it would be cool to do it as it's so obscure. I set off with confidence but as I got higher I was reminded that this is (maybe) the most remote beach in the UK with no signal, if I have an accident poor @emma_fizzle would have to deal with it, and let's face facts, I would be considered a right twat by climbers and rescuers. So I backed off it and bouldered for an hour or so just along the bottom, the rock is amazing! If you ever visit take a trad rack and do the route properly!

On our recent trip to Scotland, we found this incredible lake on the Spidean Coinich ridge. It's safe to say we have lots of images from there.

With life returning to 'normal' ish, I haven't bee

With life returning to 'normal' ish, I haven't been able to get out on the rock so much and when I do, it tends to be in a two so I haven't had the opportunity to get many photos. I have to say I miss shooting nearly as much as I miss the climbing. Hopefully get out soon. Anyone else struggling with reality?
