Once again just Me and Jago turned up for the Llanberis meet and once again it was raining in the Pass. Things looked brighter out west so after a brief browse round the climbing shops we set of to Anglesey and Holyhead Mountain.

Approaching Holyhead Mountain |
Both being less than match fit we decided to try a few VS's and Jago led Teaser, a slabby corner and then led Tension, a good climb pulling through small bulges on good holds. I then led Comfortably Numb a pleasant slab climb with a gritstone like finish on rounded holds.

Jago leading Teaser |
On Sunday we again headed for Anglesey this time to climb Imitator on Gogarth. This is a two pitch VS which takes the line of the shadow on the first buttress in the picture then breaks left and up to the top of the buttress.
Jago led off up an awkward groove before pulling onto the slab and trending rightwards on good holds to a belay. The second pitch crossed a nice slabby wall then finished over doubtful blocks by delicate moves to a scramble to the top.
