Just been looking through my climbing photos (when I used to climb!!!) and found the following...


New routing at Ardnamurchan.

One of my favourite routes in Scotland. Shibboleth.

The Bat.

A broken spectre.

'The Bat' is a place of ungodly terror.

I didn't find The Bat too scary despite falling off the Hoodie Grove while seconding the pitch. Remember thinking 'this isn't too difficult' about 1 second before swinging on the end of the rope.
Shibboleth however scared the bejesus out of me. The pic above is only the top of the first pitch. Above that it gets rather exposed!
