Pot Hole climbing

Crag: Pot Hole Quarry
Routes: The Dog (HVS 5b:TR), Right Wall (E1 5c:TR), Ceba (E1 5b:TR), Canine Meander (E2 5b:TR), Id (E1 5c:TR)

A much needed workout before next week's spring cragging trip to Provence. As usual, this was too little too late for training purposes. Warm sunshine interspersed with light showers, although we only had 90 minutes or so at our disposal. Given the recent lack of climbing, I felt OK, enjoying the positive little crimps and edges on Right Wall and Canine Meander in particular. We then did a shorter version of the usual Collie run, turning round at the farm and contouring the hillside lower down, mindful of tomorrow's race.

A visit to where it all began. How is pothole these days? I remember trying to lead a climb with our meagre rack of 2 or 3 nuts and new rope!!
