Unseasonally warm again today, so made sure we found time to nip out to Capel Curig for a spot of bouldering. I used to take groups there quite a lot, but had not been there in ages. The ground was damp and a few of the faces were a bit green, but this wall gave us some excellent entertainment.
Having not bouldered for a while, we both really enjoyed the process of working out the moves and piecing them together.
It was like having an exercise for the body and brain. When climbing a route, I usually don't 'work' the moves - I either climb it or I can't, but between us it was fun puzzling it out and good strength training too!
Believe it or not, we were working so hard, we were down to t-shirts by the end of the session!
Until sore skin stopped play and we returned to The Cottage for celebratory coffee and carrot cake, feeling suitably energised.
