My wife, our two year old son and I have just moved to the UK from Finland. We've had some great trips to the gritstone and are keen to meet climbers in the local area and get stuck into the UK climbing scene.

Best Climbing Experience
So many good ones. It's hard to pick one. At one stage my climbing was all about mountaineering and it would have been doing the Frendo Spur on my first trip to the Alps. Perhaps this was superseded by finally managing to go to Indian Creek. Now I'm mainly sport climbing and bouldering. It's opened up some amazing possibilities and I'm really enjoying limestone tufas.
