The Gower...

Well now that I have returned from a climbing trip to South Wales I thought it would be best to scribble down a quick passage of how the trip went. More of a quick recollection than a blog!

I teamed up with good friend Jamie during the 4 day trip which saw the group climbing at a number of destinations along the coast of the Gower Peninsula.

Myself and Sam running to 'Three Cliffs Bay'...
The list of climbs I managed to tick off:

Transit - HS 4b - Lead on-site.
The Nose - HS 4a - Second on-site.
Jamie following myself up 'Scavenger VS 4c'
