One Step in the Clouds

One Step... my first multi-pitch trad route in Wales, done yesterday with new friend Dave. Neither of us remembered to take a photo, but I don't think it would have done the experience any justice. The exposure high up on the second pitch was exhilarating, with the gale force winds buffeting the crag adding real bite! Whilst seconding the crux, the wind whipped a glove from my pocket. I made my best ever catch before it was lost forever in the tree tops. The route is on Vector buttress at Craig Blwch y Moch, Tremadog. I've had it in mind to do Vector after seeing a photo of it in a magazine. The camera lies.

  1. I should add, that it is my first multi-pitch since moving back to Wales in October this year. Thanks to Graham my old climbing partner in South Wales for reminding me.
