Diary: 18th April for 'Dale Turrell'
| Outdoor climbing > Bouldering |
 Bovey Woods 2 hrs 30 mins Evening. Bearacleave & Stonelands. Lovely evening. Turned up and BBB looked very intimidating, and I was expecting it to be high. Much bigger than in pictures! Brushed and chalked holds I could reach and after putting it off for long enough had to get on it. Did third go, first bad beta reaching over to second side pull, second got to crux but didn't climb efficiently and couldn't commit and third go sent. Brilliant! Retro flashed The Big Split (done in 2017 but couldn't remember) then tried Green Dot Traverse. Good beta from Jerome. Did start to crux quite quickly, worked crux move a few times and got it a few times but felt hard. Did second half from matched on slopers, get heel up to end quite quickly and also link from one move before this to end. From start did crux slap into sloper so almost in 2 halves. Skin starting to get sore. Went to the worried boulder and onsighted Pink Turns White (left arête), climbed Beyond The Threshold after working out the sequence, quite tricky, blind foot swap and bump hand down before going up. Afterwards realised I had logged in 2017 but have no memory of doing it. Did Eiffel Tower High (right arete) using juggy runnel right of it then cleaned some more moss and climbed entirely the arete and face left of. |
