Peak Limestone..

With better weather in the Peak for the last couple of days it was time to hit the crags. Simon and I decided to visit 'Beeston Tor' in the Manifold valley, a popular winter/spring sun trap.

Here we climbed the popular classics of 'Evensong' (E1), 'Pocket Symphony' (E1) and 'Deaf Dove' (E2). The main section of the crag was in good condition but there were significant wet streaks in the vicinity of 'Black Grub' and 'Beeston Eliminate'.

Following this we called in at Burbage North, to do the usual bouldering circuit. All in all a pleasant way to shock the body into rock climbing mode after the Scottish Winter season...
