Dunc's Climbing Blog: June 2012

http://climbingblogblog.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Thursday, 14 June 2012. Your own desert island paradise. It's closer than you realise. And the name of your new favourite place? A group of 11 fun-loving trad crushers loosely based around having attended Bangor University (with a couple of exceptions) were assembled by Jimmy Marjot, and after various people saying yes then no, and some organisational fuck-ups, we all finally merged in Oban, Scotland on May the 26th. As we turned towards our landing spot, I could hardly bel...

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Monday, 16 May 2011. Failure. and Inspiration. 8220;Remember, there are no mistakes, only lessons. Love yourself, trust your choices, and everything is possible.” - Cherie-Carter Scotts. Ok so here is a bit of an abstract blog that can be applied to all aspects of life I guess, but for me is mainly climbing focussed. Http:/ www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/showlog.html? I have decided that every time I go sport climbing I will try something of F7a or above, as this will be the wa...

Dunc's Climbing Blog: September 2011

http://climbingblogblog.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Thursday, 29 September 2011. Ups, Downs and Silver-Linings. So I am now back in Bangor, in a new house, with 2 different housemates, and apparently 300 hours of work to do for just one module. I have been out climbing a bit though. Before Florence upped and left us for the bright lights of Chamonix, we avoided the hurricane-force winds and did a bit of evening slate climbing; I led Plastic Soldier, a brilliant, long 6a with plastic soldiers hidden a long the way. First off ...

Dunc's Climbing Blog: March 2012

http://climbingblogblog.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Thursday, 15 March 2012. Airtime, the antithesis of climbing, yet without the fall, looming or experienced, it would be a boring 2-dimensional exercise whereby half the fun would be taken away. If you aren't risking falling off then you aren't trying hard enough, but imagine if there was never the risk of falling? Falling is a big part of climbing, and I like it that way. What the F* *! They obliged, and whilst I waited, I realised I had stopped swinging. Usually, whils...

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Wednesday, 22 February 2012. Gotta keep on, keeping on. If you feel like this too, then I recommend you watch this video:. Http:/ www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/srikumar rao plug into your hard wired happiness.html. Happiness is the key, or else what is the point? Anyway, back to climbing. As I said the weather has been real bad, but I have been trying to get out, honest! Chris on the send on the un-named V6. The second trip, we arrived to find the rock wet! Tryfan, and the Carn...

Dunc's Climbing Blog: The Time Of My Life

http://climbingblogblog.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-time-of-my-life.html

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Thursday, 27 September 2012. The Time Of My Life. I just realised that three years ago, I had been living in North Wales for less than a month! It is weird to think of the past three years and all they entailed as things of the past, and of course, much of it won't stop, but times are definately a-changing. I vividly remember one morning having a shower after getting up and thinking how lucky I was to live in North Wales and be able to do loads of climbing and have a great ...

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Friday, 18 May 2012. No such luck, as I got to the belay, Al popped his head over the top and said he was keen to go to North Stack Wall. Suddenly, the dormant butterflies in my stomach took some cocaine or something and went absolutely mental. I carried on up to the top of the crag and Al asked what I was keen for. Errrr whatever you are mate, I'm easy", I replied. So North Stack Wall then? Said I, my heart thumping in my throat. Proclaiming it's solid nature to the world,...

Dunc's Climbing Blog: November 2011

http://climbingblogblog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html

Blogging on Life and Climbing. Friday, 25 November 2011. Out of the woods? The woods of injury were dark and scary; wondering how long I would be out for, whether I would tweak my finger again, how much I had set myself back if I want to improve and reach new (so far unset) targets? On top of this, everyone was keen to get out but I either couldn't as they wanted to climb hard or just plain and simply didn't want to! The PBR makes up the Welsh contingent of the UK's big 3: The Lake district offering the ...
