Secret Stanage Evening Meet

I arrived at the crag to find Mick retreating from Parallel cracks a steep but well protected VS 4b. This was the start of several set backs on the night. Jago then led the climb and Mick followed without too much difficulty.

The action then transferred to Titanic Buttress where Mick attempted Lusitania (S) but had to retreat again. Christine took over the lead and after some to-ing and fro-ing managed lead it.

Mean while Nidal's attempt on Titanic (VS 4c) fizzled out at the first difficulties. As I left Jago and Nidal had stripped the route and joined the queue to second Lusitania.
