Best Climbing Experience
Winter 2014-15. My first crack at UK ice climbing in N. Wales with Cousin G. Turns out I can still do it!
Grand Wall/Squamish Buttress/Exasperator/Bird of Prey in 2006 (ish) with Mr B. Carslon. Real climbing, and I was really doing it.
Leading Marshall's Madness/Crack of Dawn in Seneca WV - Probably the zenith of my climbing career.
Anything I'll even be able to get up henceforth!
Favourite Climbing-Related Discussion Topic
Having spent 10 years in the US, including living underneath the Gunks (could hear them yelling on belay from the back deck), I now can only reminisce about the great climbing over there, and live vicariously through anybody lucky enough to make the trip over.
