Shepherds Crag Climbing

This afternoon i went to Shepherds Crag with the lads. Was a great short day, we had to scramble/climb up past the normal climbing area to a less used rock face. Had great view which gave me the opportunity to try and get a decent panoramic shot for my coursework.

Skiddaw Afternoon

After lecture yesterday Miles Craig and I walked up Mt. Skiddaw, there was a 70% chance of a clear summit. Turns out it was in the clouds, so no visibility at all and -10c wind chill. It was still fun though. The cloud caused the photos to be quite grainy on top of Skiddaw and when we walked down again the sun was beaming so the sky is well over exposed.



Night Slacklining #4

There is a definite need for a progression in skill from all of us, Stop hanging about guys!

Slacklining In A Gale

Last night we went out slacklining in the rain and super strong winds. This was the first time i had used my new/old external flash and it worked great for a while then something went wrong with it. This is why there is a small amount of pictures. Thanks mum x.
