Dartmoor: Bouldering
The night before, bitterly cold, a fire that gave off as much heat as a fart and a tin of beer boiled hotdog sausages...how could you prepare better for a day of bouldering in Devon?
In stark contrast to our bitterly cold night on the moors the following day was gorgeous! Clear skies, no wind; perfect!

Bouldering, Ogmore
Ogmore pretty much catersfor many different types
of climbing - Trad., Sport
and Bouldering.
When the Trench if submerged to the right and higher up there is a great stratified bouldering area which can make for a nice easy traverse.
The Trench offers some tough bouldering problems with its smoothly eroded lowwer surfaces and some easier ones where it has been barnacled.
A word of warning: check the tide times as this picture was taken a few hours later when the tide had engulfed trench we were climbing in.
Coed Ely Pics
Coed Ely is a great sun trap and can stay relatively dry even when its raining due to its leaning face. Lots of bolted routes here plus top rope points.
Cwm Dimbath Pics
This site is difficult to locate and a trek to get to. Heavily vegetated in places but with great potential. A very middle -earth feel to this place.
