BigHairyIan
I am currently climbing mostly with my daughter. She is improving rapidly, but outdoors only climbs up to Severe. I did climb E2 in my early 20s and have been to the Alps twice. Much preferred sea cliff climbing, but happy on big routes, like on Cyn Las in Wales.Location

Best Climbing Experience
Bloody hell too many to choose from! The Grooves on Cyn Las, being be-nighted in the Alps, the Cullin Ridge Traverse, The Old Man of Hoy, "with the lads" in Wilton Quarries. Street rugby in Sale town centre! The journey to Germany. Travelling round in my death trap Mini...
