It’s always sunny at Elgol; rock climbing 23 April.
23/04/11
Heavy overnight rain was a bit of a shock after such an excellent week but Elgol is always a reliable venue to teach climbing.
Chloe & Emma have learnt to smear on polished gritstone in the past so I was happy to show them some real holds on the huge sandstone jugs at this superb crag.
We practiced footwork intensely for a few hours before heading over to the main cliff and an ascent of Fertility Right.

It’s a bit bigger than Stanage with a lot less people was the conclusion!
