Cummingston


Excellent day for bouldering at Cummingston today. Due to the high wind the rock was very dry which allowed for good friction. Warmed up with the usual traverse along the wall across the big stack, but instead of continuing along finished off at the tunnel/cave which is my favourite little problem at Cummingston: a real 'feel good' one to start a session. We moved on to the stack for some very unjoyable little balancing problems, before going across to the other side again. I need to hunt for my Cummingston bouldering guide so I know which problems we did. Didn't manage the horizontal hanging traverse today but will crack it next time. Finished with going up the crack near Diedre of Doubt, getting a little buzz of going slightly higher than intended. An excellent way to end a slightly lazy session :-).
