Welcoming spring excursion to Roslin Glen



Some pics from yesterday's spring arrival celebration in the Glen - didn't know there are better places to climb than the variety of quarries;) The afternoon offered everything:

- no work

- cracking E1's

- fording a river

- a pint in the end





If you come to the glen and hear strange noises - deep, desperate groans - it's probably climbers on Wallace's cave!

p.s.: Salisbury crags was also nice and sunny earlier this week!

Really great afternoon. The Punters should make more of an effort to get down to the glen. Especially before the summer kicks in with the vegatation!!

sounds good eckmeister.. What routes you get done..?

Font was all we'd imagined and more, pretty inspiring place, so much to go at, we should get out there again very soon.Beautiful lines, wines, cheese, chocolate bready snacks, snakes, lizards, beavers, trees, wrinkly bleausards with magic beta and sandy caves for a quick nap during rain showers.

mon then!
