Rox on Rock!

Oh my god what a transition from my blip from 02Jan12 (Brown slabs Borrowdale) and the quotation "I don't think I'll be an outside climber"....

Well here I am again at Borrowdale but this time at Troutdale Pinnacle at about 200ft and on my third pitch (stretch of the rock face) with two more pitches to go! Yes I am even smiling it has been glorious.

It got a bit exposed at the top (355ft) and the wind and the drizzle started so I thought it best to blip this earlier photo, my facial expression changed a little after this.......

Thank you to Neil for leading me here and friends from Aycliffe climbing centre helping me gain confidence.
