Great turnout on a lovely balmy summers evening especially considering the number of members at the Alps meet. Mark Garrod & Dave were the early starters with John making a surprise but most welcome appearance.

Quite a few routes solo'd by Carolyn, Nick, Ding, Mark G and Dave.

New man Ozcan continued his leading adventures with a solid effort on Great Slab Arrete (HVD) - a route also led by Dave, Mark Ash and Nick.

The two pitch Great Slab (VS 4c) saw leads from Andy and Carolyn but both were bitten by the pitch two fist crack. Nasty!

Pygmy wall (HS 4b) was led up by Mark Ash & Andy.

Carolyn led the way up the not-so-Crispy Crack but slightly-in-need-of-gardening crack (HVS 5a) followed by various others.

Andy led the delicate pebble gripping fest of Great Slab Right (HVS 4c) followed by several others.

Many other routes were climbed - far too many to record with us finally making 'The Clarence' at 10pm ish.

With five crags on the table the voting came down to Wilton 3 Vs Standing Stones and in the end it was John Cox's standing stones winning out the day.

Carolyn asked when he was last there and if it might be green: after a pause the reply..."...ohh, sometime in the 60's''...... accompanied by a sly grin!
