Dirndl Traverse

A brilliant 13 hour day traversing the Dirndl on Dachstein with Sanna and Nadège. We decided to skip the lift and hike the vertical km up to the glacier and around to the start. 12 pitches and 8 abseils later we'd missed the last bin down so reversed the approach including the initial (easy) klettersteig. 5* route, exposure and friends all day.

Peak Cracks

A weekend at Bamford & Millstone with WillB, removing the skin from the backs of our hands on routes which we could lead with ease a decade ago.

Stacking up: Old Man of Hoy

A full day out of type 2(.5) fun. Busy ferries meant we were restricted to a single day hit on foot from the mainland. It was going to be tight.

The approach took about 2.5 hours, and the first sight of the 137m tall stack is pretty intimidating. I led P1, a pile of sandy, jenga rubble, before Al pulled a marathon stint to get through the dirty off-width "coffin" on pitch 2's crux. A little French-free saw me through the move out of the chimney and up p3 before Al finished the route, including the spectacular, stack-splitting final corner pitch. This time, all fluffy white cruxes were easily dealt with by kind, gentle words.

Descent in 3 abseils was slick and we hit the ground at 5pm. The last ferry was 6:30pm, so we covered the long path to Rackwick in 30 minutes and were lucky to hitch to the last ferry home. Thanks to Erinna for some smart thinking on setting up the logistics for us!

The most type 2 day I've had in years.

Getting stacked: Am Buachille

Our summer Scottish stackstravaganza began in the far north west, camping on the beautiful Sheigra beach.

The next day's forecast was moody and grey, but we set off on the bike across towards headland and then hiked down to our first view of am Buachille. A short, sharp swim and two pitches later saw us on top after careful dodging of four fluffy white cruxes and the grovely grit and grease of Landward Face's pitch 1. As the ab began, the rains started to fall: a lucky escape. One stack down.

Afternoon Canyoning

Early evening canyoning trip with Al+Ali to their secret local spot. Great mix of bum bumpers, wet jumpers and back-and-footing slotters.

Loch Leven Paddleboarding

It was Joe's turn to lead the activities. We went for a long paddleboard across Loch Leven to visit the pink "maerl" coral, stopping off on famous Eilean Munde to explore the hidden graves.
