We made a late start at around 10:30, four routes completed by 14:30. Very busy at Stanage edge today, had to wait each time for routes as they were already taken. Definitely a summer challenge, up at first light and run between routes.


Sunny Stanage Edge


First route is Deans on Heather Wall, Vs 4c **

Deans topped out with some nice gear placements.


Quick route check.


Waiting for this chap to move up then I can start, busy today.

Gargoyle Buttress Vs 4b **, my lead. Excellent route, the traverse start being the best move by far.
