Climbing up rocks!

Thats what I've been doing today, and it was great to be out and about on the crag. Now we all know how unforgiving the rock can be on your body and your skin, so to remind you of quite how hard the grit can sometimes be, here's my photo of the day......



Next time some bright spark tells you to slap for a sharp edge, just be careful! Its not my finger in the photo (it belongs to Mike Lea), but if you look closely you can see a small piece of Mike's finger tape stuck on the hold (along with a little of his blood)! Click on the photo if you need a closer inspection of the carnage! Good job The Works sells finger tape - I reckon Mike needs a little bit more to close that split up! Be careful out there.....
