Taic Mhór [Taigh Solais stac] left of Más Sgeir - Rubha Robhanais, Lewis - Am fear as beothaile. © - SKYEBLOC
Aye, a couple weeks on & another Lewis raid is on the cards. This time with one of my favourite bouldering cohorts - & we're going armed with drills, ropes, mats, chains, tape, enthusiasm & probably bacon & raisin bagels...errrr ok. Totally psyched to be getting on the An-t Súil sport project again & getting some mpegs, lines, laughs & boulder projects in with the fella. Off for a thrutch around my door frames now & a search through the gear cupboard...More news after the trip...I wonder what Johann Stow & Rico Monsoon will come up with....ciao hoodlums.
Oh..the Taic Mhór stac [Pillar of Strength], is a 60ft bastion of gneiss & great for dancing on top of in storms like these, although the tyrolean is best set up before the storm... The whole thing shudders when surge waves impact. But enough of that kinda talk, -7°c sending weather is here & 5am stomps into the rocks.
A contrast of summer bouldering in the same hole without storm surges. This line is the brilliant Tuff Gong - v9 - which takes on the full bonkers arete.
Update: Oh well, that's that screwed then, the man is down with flu
