Millstone - Climbing

Last week I had a great day climbing with Kim at Millstone. We arrived at the crag to find we were the only people at the crag and perfect conditions. Kim hadn't climbed at Millstone before so we decided to tick some classic! They were all 3*** routes in my book.





The Mall VS 4c
Down as in the top 50 in the guidebook this route didn't disappoint with lovely sustained climbing.















Next up Great North Road HVS 5a also in the guidebook as top 50.

Chris tightening up his boots ready for a wild HVS!






Chris on Great North Road.

Great climbing in a really wild position but well protected climbing! Check out the dude in the sky.







Chris leading Billingsgate E1 5b. A great route with a crux at the top with not so fantastic protection. One not to fall off!




Kim Seconding Billingsgate E1 5b in style.
 Kim just pulling through the crux on Billingsgate E1 5b. Good effort Kim!
 The last route of the day was Knightsbridge E2 5c. A great little finger crack with small but positive protection. A great  way to finish off a top days climbing!
