Newtyle Quarry





Today Donald, Ewan, Tam, Ants, Graham and I headed this unique climbing venue. The aim of the day was to do some dry tooling on as many routes as possible. We started at Door Jam Slab, I climbed Grooviliscious (D4) and Roofiliscious (D5+) to get warmed up, then headed over to Happy Hooker Wall and climbed Happy Hooker (D7) and Va Va Voom (D8). By this time I was totally boxed and could barely hold my Irn Bru up! We all then went into the Tube where Donald and Ewan climbed Fast and the Furious (D10+) which just looked too hard for me in my current state so I left it for another day. Very cold driving back, very icy roads and lots of precipitation around Fort William. Snowing up on the tops! Pictures on the way.
