2nd night, what a place to bivi up |
A special place I have always wanted to visit but it always seemed so far away from home. This time the journey started from when I picked up Lou from Skye meaning only a 3 hour drive to the campsite on Sheigra beach. A 2 minute walk in to the closest crag mean it was Ideal for a 2 day stint.

On the morning of our first day it was a wee bit drizzly, as forecast so we had a lazy morning before heading off to the 2nd Geo for an afternoon of climbing. A superb steep wall of Lewisian Gneiss meant a wide array for brilliant routes were climbed. As the sun faded we headed back to the beach for campfire and bbq scenes.

Making sure I don't get pumped on Monkey Man (E3 5c)**** |
On our second day we were up in good time to climb before a walk out to Sandwood Bay. We started off at 'In Between the Geos' before heading to the 1st Geo for a route. There were some other teams out today which was nice to see and can't wait to get back. Unfortunately no pictures from the first day. Can't wait to go back.
