Edition of 2. November 2018 - one of Colin's and a selection of Roger's photos added (thanks for the CD!) and some of mine deleted, and a route corrected
Windgather Rocks - Small Wall area in the foreground, looking towards North Buttress
Lesley belaying Colin on The Corner (Diff)
John belaying Steve on High Buttress Arete (Diff)
Steve topping out on High Buttress Arete - the very welcome thread for a sling was pointed out by Roger
Maggie, Steve, Lesley, JohnH, Colin (and Bobby's around somewhere) enjoying the afternoon sunshine
Colin setting off up Chockstone Chimney (Diff)?
Colin leading Chockstone Chimney
Colin almost at the top of Chockstone Chimney
Steve getting to grips with Mississippi Crack (S 4a) using John's gear...
...and getting round the awkward bulge (of the crag, that is), making it look hard
John seconding Mississippi
John seconding Mississippi
Maggie looking very relaxed, seconding Mississippi
Lesley following Colin on High Buttress Arete (Diff)...
...and again
Lesley seconding Zigzag (Diff) which I'd thought was Footprint (VDiff, but not much pro), since I arrived too late to watch the start (via Toenail, VDiff and also lacking in gear) and traverse; Roger is looking on. I later tied on and seconded Footprint, since the (top-)rope falls onto it. Thanks to JohnH for the correction!
