Making it up

Wednesday 27th July
Had a ride out west in Multispace, various options considered en route.

Settled for Great Round How above Honister and some new routes, but then remade the plan with a sharp turn left into the Shepherds car park.  Too nice to be driving and walking, so crammed three routes in, LC, DG, and BS.

Peter on P3, scene of some desperate struggles (by persons unknowm) later on, featuring falling specs and much wailing.

 Fine position - don't deride it.

Also "Sam" (S) BP lead and Left Edge (AT,BP)

Looking across from Left Edge to climber on "The Dalesman" (E4)

Had to wind down early to get home in time for London Calling at the Sage.

Gouther is a good go-to crag, shortish drive, only Kirkby Stephen in the way, about an hour from Winston.
