So, once again I find myself lacking actual mountains for #MountainsWrapped 2024, but I think @bergmeister 's year's summary of the outdoors idea is great, so Imma go with it again with some crag pics from the year that have some meaning for me. Sparser pickings for me this year as I haven't got much outdoor climbing in for various reasons; mostly the fabulous British summer, my fave climbing partner heartlessly pushing off to another country for a few months, and me doing a bunch of training courses and assessments. This year included finishing my RCI - which would have appeared in this post but for the minor problems of not having any pics, finishing it in the p**sing rain, and Sheepstor being about the least mountainous place I've climbed. So here goes; meaning as well as description in the AltText

A few shots from the rather fun Tricam workshop day with Rise and Summit at Wintours Leap on Saturday. Leads on Swallow's Nest (VS 4c) and African Killer Bee (VS 4c) including placing some of said (rather versatile as it turns out) pointy devices. Not shown; the faceful of hail I took 3/4 of the way up Swallow's Next - mostly, I suspect, because Kev was rather more concerned for my safety on the suddenly very slimy and rather exciting upper section than taking pics đŸ€Ł Thanks for that, Kev! Also nice to have climbing pics that don't feature my backside!

Pics from yesterday's sunny jaunt up the absolutely banging Zelda (HS4b) at Wintours Leap yesterday.
