Rock Around Yorkshire
It’s a case of baby steps as RockAroundTheWorld emerges from lockdown, and our first taste of van life (now that some campsites are opening) was a trip to North Yorkshire. […]

Climbing along the Pennine Way
Another crag conundrum – where to climb in a heatwave during the barmy busyness of a lockdown-loosened Bank Holiday / half-term week. Helen and I found two solutions at either […]
Happy New Year from Robin Proctor’s Scar
Another day of immaculate sunshine sandwiching a rather grey and foggy Christmas week – what a way to kick off the New Year! North Yorkshire looked to have the best […]
White Rose County / White Rock
After a taste of the gritty stuff we switched sides for a couple of days. Who’d believe it takes over an hour to get from Brimham to Malham? Not the […]
A bit of Yorkshire Grit – Almscliff & Brimham
A trawl of the usual weather apps suggested that our plans for a trip to Pembroke and The Gower were likely to involve a lot of time in the pub […]

Scot Crag Scugdale
Heading up to visit Jake in Newcastle we break the journey at Scugdale at the northern end of the North Yorks Moors. Not an inspiring name but an absolutely lovely […]
A jolly day at Giggleswick
Grabbing the weather window we headed to Giggleswick South – probably not everyone’s idea of the perfect crag but handy as a meeting point between the Lakes, south Yorkshire and […]

Fancy a bit of Yorkshire Sports Climbing, Grommet?
A couple of days in the Dales and two new (to us) crags. Our first day was at sector Stone Cold at the far left end of Giggleswick South. Not […]
Jake’s back so we’re off to Malham
A gorgeous day – perhaps the first real day of spring, and it’s cracking the flags. Jake is home and super keen after months of indoor climbing frustration, and chooses […]
