Progress at the New Quarry

Dave and I have been toiling effortlessly to get the new quarry bolted ready for the summer. We had placed 3 routes (Fliddington Rex, Big Bad Baboon and Uluru) when Dave decided to lean on a wall and bend his finger at a rather inhuman angle! This along with bad weather has hampered us throughout April but finally we have some gorgeous evenings and the bolts are flying up. We have enlisted the aid of the legend that is Roy Thomas and there are now around 20 routes on the lower tier alone. This is going to be a great focus point for climbers in South Wales this summer!
