Langdale

On Saturday the concensus was to go up to White Ghyll Crag. Clive & Jago did Slip Knot and Gordian Knot while Christine and Nick and Colin and Bev along with Bev's son Brad climbed the Slabs Route 1 and Christine and Nick followed that with an ascent of Slip Knot.

Jago on Gordian Knot first pitch.

On Sunday one group comprising Clive, Jago, Nick and Christine went to the pleasantly situated but little frequented Kettle Crag while Colin, Bev and Brad headed for Scout Crag.
It was our first visit to Kettle Crag and found the routes a bit scrappy albeit with good rough rock. Clive led Minor Slab, which was a pleasant VS but with modest protection and Cristine led Red Slab (HS) as introductory routes. Jago then went on to lead Red Slab and Semerikod (VS) with various followers.
