Black Rocks SK 294557

Roundness and thuggery they say?. Also plenty of low grade classics, bouldering and scrambling. I am proof that you can get lost scrambling on the black rocks.

If I can drag my old bones up to the crag I'll see you around Birch Tree Wall at 10.30-ish. Otherwise you will find me loitering around the ice-cream van at the car park, my shout. I will have on me a new Grit West book of hints and hopefully all the scary routes will have been upgraded.

If anyone wants directions or a lift phone me or let me know at the pub and I will put my lift begging skills to use.

When we have eaten the ice cream van dry and/or have run out of skin and strength we are all invited for tea/lemonade and cakes at High Tor 'Hotel', (On the A6 in Matlock Bath, park at or near the train station)
