Marky Mark
Don't get out as much as I like living far away fromt he Crags in the Surrey flatlands. Have no ambition to push the grades but enjoy climbing at a moderate level bimbling about on Vdiffs and Severes plus dragging friends up their first routes (and getting some of them hooked too)Location
Egham, Surrey
Best Climbing Experience
Just getting out and doing something.....too many to remember.
Taking a beginner out on the friendly Windgather Rocks. Topping out of the Vent in Coire an Lochan into a perfect afternoon sun.
Roadside WI4 ice climbing in Rjukan
Family picknicks at Stone farm with noone else about on a beautiful summers afternoon.
Long days on Idwal slabs
The opportunistic rare event of there and back in a day winter climbing on YGarn, Snowdon or Hellvellyn...the list goes on.
