The crag was strangely quiet for a Sunday with just a few parties scattered about the crag. We headed for the left hand end of the upper crag, an area we had neglected somewhat for a few years.
We started out with an old favourite for a warm up, Fern Crack a HVD with a 4b start. Christine then led Damascus Crack S 4a which gave some good climbing but we avoided the sandbag VS 4b finish.
We then moved on to Contrary Mary VS 4b which had a stiff overhanging start and a steep bold finish after scrambling through the heather.

We then went on to climb Runner Route S 4a which gave good climbing up a slab to a so-so finishing crack.

With a half ganley under our belts we decided we had just enough time to get back for the World Cup Final.
