VIDEO - Against the Grain: Staffordshire Gritstone

© UKC News

Tonight's Boxing Day/Friday Night Video features gritstone climbing in Staffordshire - what better way to get motivated for some post-Christmas grit action?

This film follows local climbers as they enjoy familiar favourites, iconic classics and seek out seldom-repeated desperates. Against the Grain shows-off Staffordshire as a county and gives a fantastic insight into the close-knit climbing community in the area (including a wallaby or two!)

I can't deny, I would be tempted if I did it with a crowd again. Only time I've done it, I was too worried about what awaited me above to show-boat!!!
