Gritstone climbing
Last weekend I onsighted my first E2, Pot Black at Stanage. It was really enjoyable, a bit run out but with a reasonably safe fall out zone. It took me a while to commit to the moves, indeed on my first go I reversed to the floor from the break. I was really pleased to onsight the route though. Afterwards Owen led Right Unconquerable and Namenlos before I led Wall End Slab SUper Duper Direct in the dusk. This route is only E2 with a side runner and the 5c crux is pretty tough, well I thought so anyway! I'd previously seconded the crux rib of this route, so not onsight but some good, tricky moves anyway.
