howlingbaboon
Started climbing the Peak as a youngster, 1995, but only really got seriously into my leading about a year ago (summer 05). I love climbing the grit and enjoy bouldering and soloing easy routes. I love going to new places to climb different rock types. It's all about the mountains though really.Looking to get out climbing at every opportunity.
Currently leading upto E1 but comfy at about Peak VS/HVS.

Sheffield
Best Climbing Experience
Climbing a cave stalagtite in Laos, an awesome feeling when you step out from a stalagmite on a high ledge to a huge stalagtite on the roof.
