Gogarth

Well after a few days of consultancy work and even a bit of DIY at home (!!) it was great to be out cragging today in the sunshine. I teamed up with friend Andy and we headed to Gogarth on Anglesey. First off we climbed the route Gogarth which is 5 pitches long and overall graded at E1 5b. The walk in was hot and sweaty and the crag was a little soapy as the sun had not burnt off the sea mist but it was nice to be in the shade. Andy drew the top pitch which is the crux and pulled off a great lead. We then headed to Wen Zawn and climbed Concrete Chimney (HVS 5a) in 2 pitches and topped out just as the rain arrived. No photos I'm afraid as the camera was left on the kitchen worktop!
