It was a dull murky day as Jim & I headed out to Slipstones a place neither of us had visited for a long time, when we got there the conditions were far from perfect being warm & humid leaving the rock greasy with treacherous top outs. We operated at the right end of the crag, all but 2 of the routes were soloed & we ended the session by going and having a recce at the LH end.
This definitely the wrong day to visit Slipstones but there is absolutely loads to go at we will definitely be going back later in the year when the cold dry conditions come in.
The sun came out eventually when it was time to pack up & go home
