Bouldering By Night and Cavalry Crack Buttress

Might have miss out on the great weather in the mountain but managed to get out to Polldubh for a bit of bouldering in the night and some trad routs. Head up on Sunday night after work for a bit of a night boulder with Dan and Ewan. Ewan and myself got Pagan Uilleann sent after a bit of work on the moves. The kneebar feels great now when it works. Moving off it is so easy love it.








Then Monday and Tuesday headed to Cavalry Crack Buttress with James to get on the lead. Did The Old Wall on Monday a great VS. As the guild book say "Protection is noticeably lacking" but what there is boomer and good holes to be fond all the way up. Form the top of The Old Wall James lead the top pitch of Heatwave.
Today we want back again with Storm being are tick to get sent. James was to do the first pitch and me the next two. After a triky start James beside to get go up the first pitch of Heatwave to get to the bottom of the long diagonal crack.




Getting to the ledge it was now my tern on the lead. The second pitch was great climbing to be had. Once at the pine to belay off. I brought James up, we beside to abb off as we did wan to get benighted up on the the last pitch. Will be back get it sent with the True Finish. Just hope the good weather comes back before the migges do.
