Best Climbing Experience
Bank Holiday in the Peaks where I lead almost nothing but HVS. Notable highlights were Great North Road, Toady's Wall and Valkyrie. Then I just got over excited and had a go at 3 Pebble Slab .. but had to be rescued. So near and yet so far.

Richard was asked to lead Goliath's Groove by bridgeing only to prove that it could be done. He wasn't very happy.
