Skyline Slate Climbing

After a wet start, things brightened up enough this afternoon for a little foray into the Skyline area of the Llanberis Slate Quarries. 


The wind chill was even colder than previous days, so once again we were all layered up. We climbed 'Harri Bach Llanrug' (6a), which was nice but cold on the pinkies! 


I've got a few of the new Grivel 'twin gate' carabiners to test out, but we didn't hang around long enough in the cold to give a full review! They look wierd to use, but I think with a bit of practice I might become a fan? What this space for a full review next week...
