The Slate

April 22nd, 2009

It’s been a while… after an amazing time in Pembroke I headed to North Wales and based out of a little town called Llanberis, headquarters to North Wales climbing. It’s an amazing place with a lot of different styles of climbing… maybe most famous for its quarried slate climbing just outside of town.
Most of my time was spent on the slate with climbing legend Jonny Dawes and Hazel Findlay. Pretty fun crew!

Gin Palace was an amazing route… Imagine a 5.10 chimney in Yosemite except with zero texture and that’s Gin Palace 5.12+. It was like stemming on a marble wall, extremely physical!
