Red Fingers

Low Boulder, Carrock Fell.

Next week exams begin at university so over the past few days I've been busy revising. I felt that I deserved a break this afternoon so I headed off with pads in hand for a spot of bouldering at Carrock Fell on the eastern flanks of Blencathra. I managed to get nine problems in ranging from V0+ to V5 and in the process destroyed my finger tips and shredded my forearms on the incredibly tough Gabbro rock. It's back to revising tomorrow and I may take another break in the evening that may involve some routes over in the Langdales.

Good lines, stay safe and see you on the wet stuff...
