Cold climbing at Castle Inn

My climbing group wanted to go outdoors today, rather than into the climbing wall! Good for them! I was happy to oblige, especially as it was dry and (just about) warm enough. A lot of other climbers had also had the same idea, when it came to choosing the most sheltered and sunny crag - we couldn't even get into the car park!


We dodged around the other climbers and did a couple of routes as well as looking at some basic climbing skills and knots. We were only out for the afternoon, which was just long enough - we were able to head back just before our fingers started to get too cold! Not a bad effort though, considering there is still snow and ice in the hills not that far away!
