With the sun shining and the crag sheltered from the wind we were set for a great winters day climbing in West Penwith. With two newbies coming along on the days climbing Alan and Jim were set for a nice intro into the CCCC!
Paddy, Phil and James were all content to layback and have a relaxing
climbing. Staring on some nice little V diffs the quality of climbing at Bosigran never ceases to please. Climbing Kate and In – Between two parties bimbled up the crag with a relaxing pace. Following a cuppa Black slab was climbed by all and after Alan and Jim lowered off to get home to bed early James, Paddy and Phil continued on up the second pitch of Ochre slab climbing the overhanging chimney at VS5a.
A great day out and a great start to the year…
